    Need help deciding on a spider

    Hello all,

    I've been in search of a female spider and found 2 locally for $100.
    I'm having a hard decision on which one to choose. I know its really up to preference, but I don't really have one when it comes to spiders..... I'm honestly not a huge fan of the base spider morph. However, I do like the combos they make.
    So my ultimate goal: Breeding that girl.

    I started a thread previously about spider morphs here

    What do you look for in spiders + combos?

    Here are the two choices:

    1 (435 g)


    2 (250g)


    Sorry that the pictures are small. That's all I have.

    Any of these two good? Should I wait for a different one?


    Thanks for looking!

    Side note: Both are feeding fine.

    Re: Need help deciding on a spider

    Out of those two, I would go with #1. I like the high white on the sides and is a little heavier! Not a bad looking spider!


    1.0 Spinner
    1.1 Mojaves
    1.2 Pastels
    1.0 Black Pastel
    0.3 Normals
    1.0 Anerytheristic Corn
    55 gal. African Cichlids

    Choice 1 all the way. Beautiful reduced pattern with high white sides, all the traits that I love in a spider.
    Specializing in Ball Pythons, New Caledonian Geckos, and African Fat Tails

    I agree, go with the bigger one. She has a nice reduced pattern and high white sides

    1.0 Pastel Poss het Albino (Thor)
    0.1 Normal (Chloe)
    0.1 Tiger Reticulated Python (Jade)
    0.1 Borneo Black Blood Python (Kira)

    Make that 4 for spider #1. I like her unique reduced pattern, high white sides and she is bigger. She also appears nice and chunky like a ball should be.

    Spider #2 is very average to me. Not bad, but nothing special either.

    Either one would be a steal at $100. Even hatchling males usually go for more than that! I saw a 400g female sell the other day for something like $450 and see breeder sized females go in the $1k range all the time.

    Yet another vote for number 1. My first morph was a spider, I really like them and just about anything you put them with.

    Thanks all!

    I'll try my best to get that #1 if she hasn't been taken already.

    I agree, #1. The high white on the belly is an awesome trait.
