    Re: the spider wobble

    How many times has this topic been ran into the ground OR blown way out of proportion...Seriously..IMO If it were that BIG of a deal as in a life threatening OR debilitating neuro problem, Would we have the tons of spiders throughout the hobby as we do today? Not to mention then AWESOME spidey combos? Really... Think about it, Would people actually be willing to lay down a grand and up for the combos? OR would people continue to produce them and the combos? I know I am...

    It's an interesting topic and people want to discuss it...
    For every 15-foot python out in the Everglades, there are thousands of species of clams, trees, cats, grasses and birds that are wrecking just as much havoc across the globe. So, for all the headaches the snakes are causing, I at least applaud them for being scary enough to get people's attention.

    Re: the spider wobble

    Honestly, if i had a problem with the wobbling, i wouldnt work with spiders or their combos and i know there are some breeders who probably dont. Just like some people wont work with caramels because of the kinking. (I'm waiting for the Ultramel project to get bigger, I dont really want to work with caramels, for example). But i DO have a spider and i DO plan to breed her. Its a choice just like everything else in the hobby.

    I think we should start a poll to see if other peoples spider and spider crosses exhibit the wobbling/tilty/whatever problem. But i just love polls. lol

    i dont think that can be true considering there is only one line of spiders. They all go back to the original male that NERD has i think. (it is NERD right?)

    I don't know about lines, but I do know the animals here & their spider parents did not wobble. It's my effort at seeing if I can reduce the defect. AND yes it's a defect, not like some of the T+ but I won't work with Caramels due to the kinking. Do all spiders wobble? No. That means there may be a way to improve the morph or decrease the defect. And so I'll give it a shot.

    I've spent decades working with various animals & I even worked with homozygous lethal mammals. With some mutations come challenges. You can embrace it, avoid it or try to improve it.
    All the Best,

    be aware that non wobblers can produce wobblers and vise versa. Find a breeder you like, talk to them. Do they have babies? do they wobble? How is the parents behavior? Do they have the grandparent to the baby? How is their behavior. etc.
