I cant say anything on spiders since I dont own one. I do have a female that when shes is gravid. Most females when gravid do some kind of color change. This female turns into some kind of green ghost looking thing. Its not just the glow like the rest of my females. Shes all green now so hoping shes full of eggs. That color change is crazy great looking spider.

Awesome! Great dramatic change.

Any updates?

[Ginevive]

That is just wicked..! I would caution to call it an axanthic though, unless breeding proved it out. It could just be a nifty color change.. but only future breeding would tell.

Request granted. Rick and Rusty of Rusty's Balls made an Axanthic Spider in 2007. It was a beautiful animal. There is a picture of it on Exotics by Nature's website, under the 2007 Tinley Park photo gallery.

I don't know if this was mentioned earlier in this thread, but I just found the stuff below today and I don't feel like re-reading all 8 pages!

The snake is apparently an IMG (increasing melanin gene), based on what I read in the link below. Interesting stuff about attempts to prove out something that does appear genetic, but not in a simple mendelian sort of way, and to make it extra complex, hatchlings look normal until they change later in life.

Oddly enough, I found that link when searching for pics of pastel yellowbellies. Obvious connection right? LOL! It came up in one of those "is my snake a morph" threads. This link isn't as interesting but I'll post it in case anyone is curious. It has got to be the most interesting "is my snake a morph" thread I've ever seen!
