Woma ?

so i was down at a friends house yesturday and she has a woma and it has the wobble and it was the first time i have ever heard about the woma having the wobbles does any1 else know anything about it having it

One thing to keep in mind is that ANY ball python can have a "wobble". It's not common, and they can be caused by a variety of issues. Of course when one hears "wobble" one automatically thinks of spiders. But the behavior has been observed in other ball pythons and may or may not be the same as what we see in the spiders.

That being said, I have heard rumbles that womas are more prone to it than typical ball pythons, but I've not seen or heard any actual statistics or even anecdotal evidence that this is true.

:confuzd: Not disputing the severity of the case....just saying that the behavior isn't strictly limited to spiders.

It could be a genetic defect. It could be a neurological defect caused by a problem during incubation. It could be neurological damage caused by chemical exposure, overheating or injury.
