Woma wobble

[loonunit]

Krystal doesn't post at bp.net that often anymore, so I thought I'd share her woma wobble video. (No, she's not stating that all womas wobble, the way people claim that "all spiders wobble". But here's an example of one that has a really severe wobble.)

If not mistake womas dont have the spider wobble problem.

Seems it could have been due to something neurological from chemical in air, over heated or incubation issue.

People show up here periodically saying they saw a woma with a wobble. So I think claiming "no womas wobble" is as unjustified as claiming "all womas do".

wasn't it just the hg womas?

I'd be interested to find out if the HG womas wobble. I think those threads are all about "regular" womas, so I think it's safe to say that many of them do have a wobble similar to spiders (though not as consistently).

Tim Bailey mentions that his HG woma doesn't wobble, though that is of course a very small sample size. We do know that the pearl (homozygous HG woma) has profound neurologic issues, so even though womas and HG womas are totally unrelated, I wouldn't be at all shocked if some of the HG's wobbled too.

thank god my spider dont wobble

Yeah, I don't know if it's hidden gene vs. regular woma. But maybe some people have hidden gene womas and don't know it?

Sorry ALL spiders wobble. Some wobble slightly where you think its not, but it is..

With the price difference I doubt it.
