    Re: Are ALL Spider morphs carry those goofy genetic traits?
    I soooooo appreciate all the responses. The fact that once Morphing does occur, things just happen as it goes. I still will NOT BREED him. Thanks once again.:P

    Good for you! I refuse to even OWN a Spider or any of their tainted morphs...!!!

    Temperature has nothing to do with the wobble in spider genes.

    Good. More for me ;)

    There is nothing wrong with keeping spider genes. I love my bee, she is the sweetest of my balls, and an excellent eater. I love her to pieces! Don't let the wobble stop you if you like them.

    Have them. Have them all! I prefer health over cosmetics, any day. Would you buy a horse, dog, cat, fish, bird, ANYTHING that acted like that? Doubt it. It's ALL about the paint jobs and the $$$$$.....I'm done. Name your next one Michael J. Fox, for all I care. :rofl:

    They all have issues.. It don't seem to bother a lot of people but it is the reason I will never own one..

    So people shouldn't breed dogs that can have genetic problems? Like for example, German Shepherds and their hips? Whatever. To each their own. You don't like them, I don't care.

    And no, its not about money. I'm not even breeding yet, and when I do it is only going to be to produce things that I want, not to make a business of it.

    The spider gene is what it is, people breed all kinds of animals with issues, maybe it's not for you but making fun of Michael J Fox, that's in very poor taste

    i think he was trying to make a point.
    and i totally agree with it. why continue breeding the morph knowing its going to produce hatchlings with health issues??
    just my 2 cents ;)

    I didn't say I didn't agree but the example is in very poor taste ...
