Well there ya go. A Black bee it is...Thanks Colin.I am more than happy to defend against all you nay-sayers out there. Todd's animal is a Black Bee (which is what I call a Black Pastel Spider) and it is het ghost. It was produced by crossing a Honey Bee with an Ian G. line Black Pastel. The clutch produced normal spiders as well as black pastel spiders and there was ZERO ability to confuse the two when they came from the egg. Ian Gniazdowski also acquired one of the male black bees and I doubt any of you here are willing to suggest that he can't tell the difference between a spider and a black pastel spider.
A CinnaBee, a similar morph can be seen here: http://www.newenglandreptile.com/ner...ider-ball.html
And here is another cinnnabee: http://www.newenglandreptile.com/ima.../cinnabee2.jpg
It is not an impressive morph to look at and I can see how a photo may not allow you to see the subtle indicators that make them recognizable. The Black Widow that was posted is not a CinnaBee nor a Black Bee. Get your facts straight.
So, thanks for slamming me for no reason. You guys are cool.
I'm a professional breeder and have no reason to dupe someone, especially a guy who is a friend (who Todd is). My name is my reputation in the business and cheating people will not help progress as a breeder.
