spider wobble

ive had my spider for about 2 months and havent noticed any real major/visible wobble, will he develop a wobble as he gets older or is what he has now the worst of it?

it may change, it may not, every animal is different. Just watch the comments that come in this thread, everyone's story is different.

It most likely won't. My spider only showed it when I put prey in his tub, and even then it was pretty slight. My bee does a weird sort of corkscrewing motion when he tries to leave his tub, or when you are holding him and he is trying to go up.

I don't know what the medical problems are with the wobble but I've watched examples of it on youtube and I think it's cute the way they twist and turn. If it's not causing a problem with the snake's survival then I wouldn't worry about it.

The wobble is inherient in the Spider gene. I can show up at any time, or never. It might be very mild or it can be "train wreck" severe. On the bright side, I've never heard of an adult developing a case of the "train wrecks" out of the blue. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has seen this happen.

I really see nothing wrong with spiders having a "wobble". If they eat breed and are happy I don't see it being a defect, I honestly see it as something that gives them personality and makes them Unique in a good way.

I have "heard" that it can be worse as a youngster, or "develop" as they get older. My bee had a slight wobble about the first two weeks we had her. Most noticeably at feed time, she would bobble before striking. And the first two feedings, missed on the first strike. Haven't seen it since, and she's almost a year old. And dead nuts on striking now too. I think it was brought out by the stress of a plane ride and new home. She also, is the sweetest snake in my collection. It doesn't affect her ability to eat, or be happy and healthy at all. There are varying degrees of wobble as well. I love the spider gene. :D

Oh, btw, she is a stellar eater. Never missed a meal. Not even when she is pink headed into shed.

I don't mind the wobble either I knew about it b4 I got him...he's the only snake I have for now I want a lesser, pied, or ivory super bad

My spider is also a great eater

My spider is a great eater as well.. he rarely wobbles and is about 250 grams. Hope he doesn't develop anything later on *fingers crossed :please:
