    Potentially embarrassing question....but what the heck!

    First thread for me here, so please be gentle. This is a young male BP I picked up for my son at a specialty pet store about a month ago (before I found this forum). It was sold as a male spider het ghost. Well, I've been spending a lot of time here and elsewhere researching morph combo potentials for this little guy (it is a guy...I confirmed that) and now believe he is more likely a pinstripe. Anyway, I like his look and am not dissappointed either way. Please let me know if you agree with my assessment. Thanks,

    He is a very gorgeous reduced-pattern spider.

    Re: Potentially embarrassing question....but what the heck!

    Cool! So he is a spider. I thought I saw a bit of the "wobble" when I first fed him, but it was quite minor, and I hadn't noticed it the last two times he has eaten. I know I won't be able to prove the "het ghost" part of the equation til he breeds with the right girl, but at least I don't have reason right now to doubt the snake's genetics. Thanks again,

    Dave

    yeah he is a spider but a good looking 1 at that, i can see how you would confuse him with a pinstripe.

    he's gorgeous! Very nice reduced pattern with a nice dorsal stripe. Some people breed for the stripe, some don't. My female spider has the same stripe down her neck. Here's my little girl named Charlotte: http://www.iherp.com/Public/Animals/...nimalID=109450

    An easy way to tell a striped spider from a pin is to look at the head pattern. Pins have closer to a normal head pattern and spiders have their weird pattern.
