What's your opinion? Spider Balls high or low white?

[SlitherinSisters]

I've noticed a lot of people prefer the high white Spider balls, but I'm really leaning the other way. I think the high whites look....sort of dirty, is the only way I can describe it. Is there a reason people like the high white or is it all personal opinion? I've got a male NERD Pastel and I'm looking to purchase a female Spider by this fall. I'm sure you know where I'm going with this


So I have two questions:

Do you prefer high or low white Spiders?

and

Should I get a high or low white Spider to breed for Bublebees?


I know it's all my opinion, but would it make a difference when making Bublebees?

[dsirkle]

I like high white myself. I don't know the effect difference between the two for making Bumblebees

[SlitherinSisters]

Ooo yay!!! There are a couple low white lovers!!! I was afriad everyone was going to call me a freak for liking them better I caught some flack for admitting to not liking Albinos, but I really do like the low low contrast albinos.

I prefer high white in Spiders and bees and I was lucky enough to hatch both a high white spider and a high white be this year. (Female who produced them is high white)

What matter is what YOU like best.

Ok, I've got another question, or favor to ask. Can you or anyone show me high and low white bees???

By saying a high white spider you mean the freckles on the sides and white stomach? I guess the rule is the more white on a Spider produces better bees when crossed with a Pastel? I've crossed my Spider with a Pastel this year for the first time and thought I'd ask.

[SlitherinSisters]

Ooo that is nice.

Yep, the high white Spiders have white that goes to about the middle of their body. Maybe your thinking more of low white, where they just have some freckles up the side. I'll try to find some pictures....

Oh and good luck with that clutch!!! It will be awesome I'm sure!!!

I like em high... I held off for two years on getting one till I found one I liked.

High white sides, high gold color... thats my favorite in a spider.

But again, that is just a personal preference.
