    Hey, umm the only difference between ball pythons are patterns and colors.
    spiders are not crazy or suicidal.

    Weird, I can't edit my other post o.O But yea, just to clarify, I have read up about the Spider morph/wobble, that it's a genetic trait linked to the morph [not caused by inbreeding], can be amplified by stress, contact with another ball python [for breeding], eating, and/or age, and parental wobble doesn't effect how subtle/bad it will be in the offspring. Spider combos don't get rid of the wobble either. It's a neurological issue and Spider BPs don't appear to be in any pain with it, and can function as pretty much normal [eat/drink/shed/poop/move].
    I still don't like them, and I don't wanna drag this any issue any further, lol, I've seen all the threads on this topic already on the forum, I don't need this to be another one XD

    I'm not comfortable with Spiders either, so I can relate.

    Yes, the IMG thing is usually random, but it can still make some killer dark snakes.

    Fire might be an option. yes there are lots out there that looks just like a normal, but a high quality one is really something, all creamy markings and black/brown base color.

    Leopard might be an option for the super busy pattern, most I have seen have unreal patterns.

    Of course, being in Canada, you might be reduced to getting whatever you can afford, whether it's what you want or not. :P

    Gotta say I love my black pastel. Got him for around 115$.

    They are a really inexpensive morph, have great rich coloring and a super awesome pattern.

    What I like most is that beyond the black pewter stuff no one seems to have done a lot with them. I am personally going the black bee route, as there is so much unexplored after that initial breeding. Breaking new ground is always exciting.

    Yay I'm not the only one, I don't feel so weird anymore :p
    I feel bad saying I can't really see too much of a colour difference between Normals and Leopards or [young] Fires ^^; Some of the bigger Fires shown on the morph list do seem a lot lighter.
    And lol yea, being in Canada seems to limit a lot of things x.x

    D: Whut, there's over 1k morphs and people are still able to "break new ground"? That's pretty awesome, and crazy XD Good luck on that!
