    Possible yb Spider?

    my guys yellow is getting kinda crazy. He is getting some orange banding mixed in with his yellow. I also noticed today after he shed that his stomach is very yellow down the center. I had not really paid much attention to the color of his stomach... lol

    Ive done a lot of reading over the last couple of days and have found it can be extremely hard to spot a yb spider. Some things i found - orange in the yellow and of course loads of yellow. i read that yb spiders bellies can be very different.. Found it odd he has a shatter type of pattern on his belly.

    First I will post a pic from about 2 months ago - the pic is a bit blurry, but you can see the orange kinda starting on his side and also how yellow his sides are


    Next - two pics i took tonight. my house is very dark.. and its very hard to get good pics.. so to the bathroom i go. Its not easy trying to hold a wiggling snake and take pics...hehe So! im sorry.. they are a bit blurry.





    Am i seeing things? lol, im just not sure. My pastel is a bit away from breeding.. thinking about looking into a adult pastel to see if it would prove out but not sure if its worth the time.

    No that's just a normal Spider. The amount of gold, white, and yellow will vary from snake to snake. Some will have no white at all, some will have all white and maybe a couple scales that are yellow/gold. That's just a spider, sorry!

    Was one of his parents a yellowbelly? If not, then obviously he is not.

    He's a regular Spider. My Spider's belly and sides looks just like that.
