Re: bumble bee question (head tilting)
Yes, that is a sign of wobble. No you shouldn't be worried that is a very minor wobble. All, BP's who have the spider gene wobble to some extent it just goes with the territory. Good luck and where are the pictures?

Hello,
As your snake grows you'll find the wobble will decrease a bit. Once your snake is larger and the muscles in the neck are more developed the snake will be able to keep its neck more stable. Unfortunately its a recessive trait that was passed on in order to achieve the specific breed.

From what I've read, as long as she eats well there's no problem. The side tilting thing is a lesser degree of the wobble. Ok lang yan bai! I'm Cebuano
