    Odd spider hatchling

    So my buddy had a clutch from a bumblebee X normal and hatched out these two spiders. The one on the right was super light colored compared to the rest. Looked really weird and for some reason about a week after hatching he died unexpectedly. Anyone have any insight on why he might of died and the color difference? I know colors vary but this looked like a completely different snake. Just thought I'd ask.

    Picture doesn't do it much justice, it was way lighter and no brown at all it was like tan with a hint of green.

    Developmental abnormality. Color is the last thing to come in, when a ball python develops in the egg. Sorry to hear he didn't make it.

    Yeah it was one of toms. When I took that picture everything seemed fine and he looked healthy then a couple days later he was gone. It is a shame.
