From what I know of Ball Python genetics, (Im a Blood Python Guy)
Spiders are Co-Dom
So in a clutch, you have....
Normals
Spiders
Post a picture of the one your curious about

The normals wont have any wobbles as its just the spider gene itself. Your fine breeding a spider to a normal and yes 2kdime is right with the results you'll get.

No, spider is a single mutant gene. The normals in a spider clutch are simply normal. They don't have the gene, thus they don't have spider traits.

I agree, it can only be normal or spider, if it's normal an resembles a spider than I'd have to agree with you it's most likely a reduced pattern normal, what did the Normal parent look like, do you have pictures of him/her?
