Not usually. Markings can differ between male and female Spiders of the same species, however male spiders are not usually lighter in color. They are typically smaller than female spiders though.

How are spiders made?

Spiders are produced from eggs laid by adult female spiders. Each egg sac can contain hundreds of eggs, which hatch into spiderlings that eventually grow into adult spiders.

Why do female spiders kill male spiders?

Female spiders have food on their minds almost all the time. They having mating as an objective part of the time. When they have mating on their minds that does not stop them from wanting to eat. Male spiders have several ways of identifying themselves as being of the same species as the female, so that she will let them approach to mate with her. Then most of them have their own ways of keeping the female from eating them as or after they mate. Some male spiders sacrifice themselves. Some female spiders sacrifice themselves to their babies after the babies hatch.Eating the male spider after mating gives the male spider's genes a better chance of survival. So, evolutionarily speaking, it is an advantage to the male to have his progeny get a good start in life. The same is true of the female. Spiders species often live for only once season anyway, so it may be unlikely that either males or females of some species will get a second chance at reproducing.So female spiders eat male spiders because they are hungry, but also perhaps because evolution has not found it expedient in some cases to give the males a good way out. In other cases, however, the males almost always are not eaten. Some female spiders even tolerate males to continue living with them.

Are spiders unisexual or bisexual?

No. When a female black widow spider is looking for a mate, well she finds one and mates it. Then she eventually eats him! (most species of female spiders do this- they are bigger than the males as well). The female black widow spider uses the male one just to make babies. Then they are off-unless the female is hungry! So, black widows are not asexual. By the way, I am female and 13 years old and I love spiders. Plus, I am also learning about sexual reproduction and all that sex stuff in 7th grade science now-anyway, hope this made sense to you!
