Do all or most spiders have yellow belly scales?

Photos of my Spider girl "Splicer" just shed yesterday (12-14-10) weight 1100 grams.

Thanks Chris for the reply. Do Spiders that exhibit the yellow belly scales make better Bumble bee's?

My stinger bee has them, but that's a bit different I guess....

I've yet to make any or own any bees, but I would think that a high yellow/gold spider would give you the best bees.

Thanks again Chris, the Bumble bee was what got me hooked on this hobby!:wamma: Unfortunately at the time I didn't have the cash for one, so I decided last year to try and make me one.

I Picked up this Spider girl in a trade. The guy said the breeder was reluctant to sell her but that could have been just a selling ploy by the breeder.:rolleyes: As for me I've only seen two Spiders in my life so didn't have much to compare her to. After spending some time on the BLBC :rockon: I'm having second thoughts on what to breed here to, an Enchi or a Super Pastel, what do you guys think? Thanks again guys for all the help.:yes:
