Re: Spiders--deformities?
All snakes are susceptable to the same deformities (kinking, duckbill, born without eyes, etc) the spider doesn't carry any extra genes prone to these. Spiders are known for their wobble, which is more neurological than physical.
As far as the Super form, many believe it to be Homozygous Lethal, meaning that it either doesn't become fertile, dies during development in the egg, or simply becomes re-absorbed before being laid.
So long as your incubation methods are spot on, you should have no worries about deformities from a Spider x Normal pairing. :gj:
Re: Spiders--deformities?
As far as I know, breeding a spider to another morph/normal has no higher a risk of deformity (like kinks) than other mutations out there. I'd expect wobbles in any spider/ spider morph combo, the variance of severity for each individual can be quite random (minor wobbler throws severe wobbling babies, vice versa)
Spider to spider breedings are seldom done. As far as supers are concerned, no one has proven that there can be a homozygous spider, it is believed that it is a lethal gene. As far as we know none have ever been hatched.
And I was beaten to it... lol
