Normal female Het for Spider?

[valhalha30]

I had her for a few months and recently noticed that she has a wobble. With eating/drinking/climbing, everything she does she wobbles while doing it. Especially when excited or after eating.
Could she carry Spider genes?

Since a spider is a visual (co dom) morph a ball python either is a spider or it isn't, there is no 'het spider'.
It sounds like she may have some neurological issues. Spiders have neuro issues that are tied into the gene, but its very possible for ball pythons to have those issue without any genes. It depends on what happened during incubation, or if the snake suffered some kind of trauma in its life.

No.

Spider is a dominant gene - if she had spider in her she would look like a spider.

There are a few things that can cause a wobble though - from weak muscles in hatchlings through overheating causing neurological symptoms and parasite infections.

What does she look like? Sometimes low quality spiders look like reduced normals. But yeah, there's no het. spider. She may just have issues.

Actually all visible spiders are het spider. Nobody has ever proven one to be homozygous yet.

any pictures of this normal het spider?

No webbing, and she has weak muscles. So that's all, that would cause a wobble?

She could have overheated, been exposed to chemicals, if this isn't how she's always been.

Idk got her from petsmart, she's pretty, and sweet. But somewhat weaker than my pastel.

I once brought home a rescue carpet python that had been kept on cedar bedding, she wobbled just like a spider but her's was due to poisoning from the essential oils in the cedar.
