New Herp owner

Hi all!

I'm new to the forum, although since before acquiring my Pin ball python Nagini, I have been avidly reading all I can get on how to care for her (proname used despite not actually knowing the gender), as I'm petrified to do anything wrong.

Now my question has to do with her morph. I have been doing a lot of reading in the past 24 hours or so about Spiders and the wobble gene, mainly because in the future I want to get into breeding, but not without all the info I can get. I have noticed that spiders look strikingly similar to pinstripes, and what I was wondering is if the wobble (without neurological damage) is inherent to the Pinstripe as well?

Thanks! And I look forward to many years of getting to know this community!

(funny postscript- she has just finished her first shed in my possession and I spent the past week and a half anxiously researching the shedding process to make sure what I was seeing was, in fact, normal.):gj:

I did some reading on it, but I couldn't find anything conclusive. Whenever I tried to search "ball python" with "wobble", even if I put pinstripe in the string, the only thing that came up was topics that had to do with spiders.

No; it is just spiders, and spider morphs that have the wobble issue.

Its genetic issue that all spiders carry, some have way worse than others, and some you can't notice at all. A bumblebee for example (pastel x spider) will also have it because it has the spider gene.
