High white spider

[Mike Cavanaugh]

Is there a particular type of normal that tends to create a higher white spider? Light / dark / pattern? Or is it just luck of the unknown genes of the normal?



thanks

Hmmm, that's an interesting question. I'd think that it would be just like selective breeding with any other morph. But then again I've seen the results of a couple spider clutches that were just all over the place. All the spiders in one clutch (I think he got 5 total) looked just completely different. I think the spider gene may just be really variable.

I want to say though that if you bred a nice high white spider to a normal that had some nice white borders to their pattern that may increase your chances of having nice high white spiders. But I couldn't say for sure. I'd think your best bet would be to breed a nice high white spider to another high white spider if that's what you're looking to get from the clutch.

I was thinking the same thing today!

I'm not sure, but id guess its from balls that how already high yellow sides.

I guess it also depends on the spider, maybe its random but normally I see high white spiders throw high white and low throwing lows. At the same time I see randomly opposite siblings of white if that makes since. IDK, Maybe we can talk about it more at the show this weekend
