    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....

Hey all you OD breeders, it would be awesome if you can ID these guys so I can make sure I have it right. Thank you : ) I think it's five orange dreams and I don't know if it's just a pretty spider or spider and something else. Clutch is from an orange dream and a really light spider.



the guy on the right has a clear belly



Spider belly shot

 
The spider is definitely not a Dream bee but those OD's look more then just OD to me. Could you post pics of the parents?
 
Thank you :D

Here are pics of the parents

Mom, she was sold to me as a normal spider but is super light and taninish. She is gravid in the pic and a about week from shedding.

Dad, an OD.

Belly shot of dad, this is what I thought was a normal OD belly. Some of the babies have pattern on half the belly then white with pied tracks on the lower half and the baby on the right has a clear belly with tracks all the way down. Another has a mostly clear belly too. Those two are the brightest ones. Maybe a gene from mom? The spider is super pretty too. They haven't shed out yet. The other OD's from the YB clutch are more normal.

I can get more pics of the babies when they shed out, they're all blue right now.
 
When I first looked at these OD's my first thought was OD Fires, after seeing Mom I am pretty confident they are or something similar. Mom looks like a Fire Spider to me. And dad is an awesome looking OD by the way!
 
awesome :D I figured mom was something extra. They babies are starting to shed, I'll get individual pics when they're done. Thank you for all the help :) And dad is awesome, still holding his color great. I'll hold back whatever babies look like they have something extra. The nicest looking ones are all female, if there's not a male that looks like it has something then I'll pick up a super fire for her next year.
