    I love queen bees as well lol It was a bit easier for me though sense my first snake was my pastel lesser/butter Congo so all I really needed was the spider

    My first was M.J a desert she was a rescue. She'll never be bred and is now my nephews snake [emoji216]. Bonnie came as a rescue. Clyde was purchased online and Monty came from the local pet store.

    I have a 5 year old Albino Spider BP female. She is awesome. Docile as anything, and I don't really notice a wobble on her. Not sure if it's because she's mixed with Albino, or I got lucky, or just don't notice.

    Either way, she eats fine, drinks fine, and is an awesome animal. It has never been an issue for me having a spider.

    I am a spider advocate because I feel strongly that the negative stereotype of spiders has been blown terribly out of proportion. They are wonderful snakes and live healthy and full lives.

    That being said, if you are always going to have it in the back of your mind about wobble being a defect then get one of the multitude of morphs that are not marred by this perpetuation of a non issue of a gene.

    I have a spider myself, she was my first "morph" and let me tell ya, she is a eager eater. I watched alot of video's, read alot of threads on spiders and decided that the wobble was not going to be something i looked at negatively. Mine is absolutly docile as can be, even when she gets excited with food theres hardly no wobble to her. My best eater, she just got done feeding and she is going in to shed but still wanted to eat. Planning on also breeding her as well.

    I would never turn anyone away from a spider morph myself.

    Thank you everyone for your thoughts and comments!
    I had been out all day thinking about it, and all this support helped me decide to go ahead and get her!
    I just sent payment, so i am now not shy to show a pic of her. (I was worried she would get sold before i decided)
    Shes coming from Garrick DeMeyer of royal constrictor designs, someone i trust based on many great reviews.

    I am super excited and thank you all for the encouragement!https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a71f41a1b9.jpg

    You didn't say it was a super mystic. Nice choice.
