Her name is Charlotte. I couldn't help but notice that the more I looked at other spider BP pictures that she has a unique stripe down her back. The pairing for her was a female normal x bannana bumblebee male. Any opinions, and advice, is welcomed

I have an adult female spider with very similar markings, when I first got her I thought she must have pinstripe in her haha. There's quite a bit of variability in spiders, I saw some produced by Brian Gundy with so much white you'd swear they were caliders.

Very cool though, I'd take that over a standard patterned spider any day.

Is there a chance her offspring will have similar markings? I'd love to breed her with an axanthic, or a super pastel.

I'm really not sure, I would think the offspring would have at least some resemblance to the parents just from a genetic standpoint, but how much of the striping would carry on is hard to say. I didn't get a clutch from my striped girl this year so I don't know yet whether it's random or not.

I took a picture for you today, I think your girl is going to grow up to look very similar.

She's beautiful. I hope my baby comes out to be that pretty.
