Albino Spider Questions?

[Boanerges]

I am looking forward to breeding my 8ball spider to my female albino and making some spider het albino babies to produce some albino spiders in the future. My question is do albino spiders hold their color as they age? Does the color run together? Any one have pics of adults that they would like to share with me? Thanks

in the back of the NERD book there is one that looks like an adult. it is really orange and you can see the white stripes still.

I think it'd depend on the quality of the Albino. If it's a very high contrast then that means the babies should be a nice dark black and caramel color which should translate to high contrast spider albinos which hold their colors much better than typical albinos.

I think this will depend on the albino that is used..If your albino is High Contrast then I feel like your chaces of color run are smaller.

For those who don't know:

This is my female albino:


This is my male spider from Adam:

Gorgeous girl, how big is she?

She appears high contrast so I would say you have a good shot at high contrast Albino Spiders in the future.

I have seen some adult Albino Spiders in which the colors have bled together, and it looks like a giant banana. So, I would have to say it is possible. Althoug, as others have stated, if your Albino Spider has good high contrast line genetics, then it has the possibilty to have distinct white patterning as an adult.

Giant Banana? That sounds like an awesome site to me.

I just weighed her right now and she weighed 779 completely empty. Didn't eat last week or this week due to shed...

That is what I was hoping wouldn't happen. But I guess there is only one way to find...
