    Re: Handling Your Spider

    Mine definitely woobles (should have named him Weeble). More interesting to me is that he is much less active than my Pieds. Where they are in constant motion when out, he is very content to sit curled and watch. Although he "T"aint entirely right" in the head, he is a great snake and pet! I handle him as much as my Pieds but in a different way. I just pull him out and let him sit curled on my desk while I work. He seems content doing so.

    Re: Handling Your Spider

    Thanks for the input! She has calmed down drastically now.. I don't notice her corkscrewing much at all and she also does tend to sit still rather than move around. She goes in her hide a lot but is also out at different times of the day rather than just at night time.

    Holding is still a bit tricky. She caught her nose slightly on my shirt and swung her head up and hit me in the nose with it! She's done that twice now.

    The wobbling trait can get alot more noticeable at feeding time.

    Re: Handling Your Spider

    I have a male spider that wobbles a bit, but not drastically. Does anyone know if the wobble trait affects spider morphs such as bees?

    Wobbles can occur in spider combo morphs but the chances are a lot lower.
