Ok sorry just wanted to make sure..not trying to cause anything I just thought it would be easier to call it a Dom gene ... Cause it might be more confusing later on explaining.... Anywho thanks for clearing it up... I still get confused once in a while and have to go look...Originally Posted by JLC
It's completely different with reptiles (and most other wild animals for that matter). When it comes time to breed, most species don't get out a family tree to make sure they're not mating with a direct relative.
I just wasn't going to get into the semantics of dom vs co-dom...the basic idea was enough to point out that a spider x normal can yield spider offspring.
And for those mentioning it, I agree that the BEST way to get one is to breed a het-axanthic spider to a fully axanthic mate. But that's not always easy or inexpensive to come by.
I think if your in for the long run on keeping balls and are limited on. Budget I would go spider het ax. X het ax would be be cheapest route and funner to produce your own! Good luck
