    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I breed my pin to a normal female. She laid 9 eggs total, one was a slugaroo.
The first one hatched two day's ago, a pinstripe rock on. The second and third came out of their eggs today, both pinstripes!! So i took a peek at the other five, all pinstripes. man what a day. My question is how did that happen??

Has this pin ever produced non pin offspring before (or is this his first clutch)?

If no non pin offspring, do you know if his parents could have both been pinstripes?

BRB reported last year that he had what appears to be a homozygous pinstripe and that it looks just like a heterozygous pinstripe (all or almost all the pinstripes before that one are heterozygous for the mutation). If your pinstripe came from a pin X pin clutch then it was a 33% chance homozygous pinstripe and you might have hit those odds.

Or you might have just got lucky with a heterozygous pin (like 1 in 256 lucky).
 
I breed him to three more females this year, time will tell. I purchased him at the narbc in dallas last year from an asian man from St Louis. This is his first clutch.

Some folks where talking about the spider gene being this way too.

He is a for sure keeper.
 
It just seems like spider has been around for a long time with no one claiming a homozygous spider yet. Maybe after NERD declared it dominant early without a proven homozygous spider most gave up and haven't been trying. I know it's going to be hard for me to breed spider X spider and not go for the bumblebee with my spider female since I know that's possible and is very attractive.
 
Update, six in hatch rack, the other two are piping. Now i cant wait to see what the other
females will produce. one just went through ovulation shed so it wont be to long.I'll post pic's after the other two come out. Thanks for the feed back
