    No offence, just confused.

    Well I didn’t say it proved anything…But he bred Bumble Bee to Spider and all the babies hatched fine…One of the poll options is All Eggs Hatched…

    BTW the vid worked for me just now…Although it’s not relevant.

    I would like to see pics of that super spider! To my knowledge super spiders do not exist! Couldn't find any pics on the net either!

    I was just wondering. I thought you were pointing to the chance that poster of the vid had managed to have a homogeneous Spider.
    Thanks for clearing that up.

    You won't find any because it is a lethal gene to my knowledge. If someone knows otherwise please correct me.

    i think someone started that the homo spider is lethal for kicks and giggles because i have not found a single shred of credible evidence to back this up.

    True but there is also no evidence proving that a homogenous Spider exists.

    Like was said in another thread, until someone actually proves out that the "lethal gene" thing is either true or false rumors will always float around.

    Re: Spider X Spider Results

    If there are no super-spiders, then spider must be homozygous lethal. (Basic logic).
    If there are super-spider, then spider must be dominant.

    So far we have 2 people claiming they have super-spiders. Homozygous animals that look like spiders, and produce only spiders when bred.

    If those 2 folks are being honest, that means spider is truly dominant.

    As for the folks who claim they have never seen a photo of a super-spider....how do you know you haven't? Maybe you've seen dozens of them?

    If the 2 poll answers are in fact honest answers why in the world would you keep it a secret??
    I would be screaming from the top of the nearest building and telling everyone.

    I mean why would you not want to be the one that settles this argument once and for all.

    Re: Spider X Spider Results

    It's pretty sad that we cant see who voted on this poll If we could we could bug them about it til they spilled the beans/know if the person was lying.

    But perhaps they just enjoy the quiet life and dont want to share.
