@folicallychalled..thank for your ID and info, that right I was taken pic that orange/ red one,and i have a white one too, that is more biger than the orange .
I am finding two variations of this spider. The other has an orange/red hue on its abdomen back and is larger. I suspect that they are just different stages of growth and your image is of a juvenile. Marvelous image :) Dave
