Spider Ball tilting his head while moving??

Hi everyone! I am just writing because I am worried about my Spider BP because when he moves he tilts his head to the side kind of like he has some kind thing bothering him... Has anyone ever heard of this? I tried giving him a soaking and gently poured water over his head and eyes but he is still doing it... I am going to feed him in a few days so I won't handle him anymore but I am curious to see if he eats, also, he is not blind because he responds to my finger movements when handling... Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Edit: Could this be a condition known as "Wobble"?

Spiders have head wobbles. Some wobbles are slight, and others are severe.

It is part of the spider wobble.

Ok I thought so, is this something I should worry about? He does it slightly and when he is not moving his head doesn't shake... I think it might be a slight case of wobble?

It probably is the wobble. It's nothing to worry about as long as they're still eating well.

Ok, if he takes his rat when I feed him soon I will know it's ok...

My spider does that on occasion. That is just the Wobbles that make the spider a funny gene IMO. Sometimes makes them look a little drunk.

Same, he's not doing it ALL the time, just slightly, I was just concerned is all since I am a first time owner :) and lol on the drunk thing! :rofl:

As said, it's just his wobble. It might get better, it might get worse. You might see it more when you present food, or if you ever put him in with a female. Stress or excitement can enhance it. Ultimately, so long as the snake is still eating and thriving then there's nothing to worry about. Just consider it a bit of extra "personality".
