    Which spider makes a better Bee?

    As everyone here knows, there are different types of spiders. My question is, in your opinion and experience does a low white or a high white spider make a better looking bee? show pics if you can of your results!
    My pastel just entered her pre-lay shed and im excitedly day dreaming of what the bees might look like(if i get any)
    (i used a high white)

    I think its all in what your looking for. I want a great looking pastel and a high white reduced pattern spider to make my bees. Start off with great parents, end up with great looking young.
    DC Reptiles.com coming soon....

    I've seen both to be honest with you. I like some of the high white bees but the ones I've seen seem to be really brown with low amounts of yellow, possibly due to the white. My bee is mid/high white but he has a TON of yellow highlighting everything. I've seen some low white bees that are almost entirely brown too. The spider matters but I also think the pastel matters the most since that is going to determine how yellow/light your bee stays. I'm curious to hear everyone else's thoughts.

    I have a high white reduced patten spider pipping out of egg right now.

    My male breeder spider is high white as so is my male bee.

    From the Bees I've seen, I prefer the high-white. Though, I also prefer high-white Spiders. I suppose it is all about personal preference.
