cool CL find

[akaangela]

Well I was surfing Craigslist and came upon an add to "rehome" a spider girl. I always shoot them an email thinking what can it hurt right? So I get a reply and we set up a time to meet. Well for only $200 I got this.....









She was from a local breeder and didn't want to worry about shipping so she was selling them on cl. This little girl is smoking in person! She has a slight wobble but nothing very seriously. She dose have a water dish in her cage (but I took it out for the photos) I am a bit worried as she hasn't settled down at all. She just cruising her cage.

What do you mean by a wobble? I am picking up a baby spider female as soon as she has gotten a few meal in her first.... She was born on the 19th of this month and is not quite ready to come homeyet.

Spider morphs can get wobbles, super black pasels can get a deformed nose. There are some other ones that can get stuff, not sure on what though.

so by wobbles... you mean that they do not slither right? They move in a irratic pattern?

[k2l3d4]

Oh yeah,... and that lady you picked up is a beauty.

LOL, not quite. Do a search for spider wobble, and it'll let you know. Always do a bit of research.

She's very pretty! Good find, hopefully she works out for you!
I, myself have fallen into the CL temptation, Got a wonderful, healthy 900gram Mojave out of it not to mention my Pastel poss. het pied (Both at great prices, but I'm not going there)!!!
You just have to be careful and know what you're looking for and at, there are a few breeders that advertise on CL.

She's pretty Good luck with her!!

Thanks. I had gotten another girl from the same woman about a year ago. It was a nice surprise to find out she was the one with the little girl. My other girl I got from her is a nice normal, but this girl is smoking!

As far as the wobble, think of you having a tremmer(sp) (uncontroled shaking of the hand) in your hand. That is what a wobble in a spider, but it is their head that vibrates. A LOT of spiders have wobbles and I am not sure if it has been decided exactly what causes it, but most of the time it is nothing to worry about.

I have put her in her new home, checked the tempatures and am trying very hard not to keep looking at her.

I really wasn't looking for a female spider, but it was way too good a deal to pass up! So now I have to think of a name for her. Any ideas?

Thanks... I was just looking at Mr Wibbles on Youtube... and it looks like the wobbles is more of a weak neck? kind of like they are having troubles holding their head correctly. is it more like weak muscles or are we looking at a nurelogical disorder? Either wa it does no matter.... I am still going to pick my lady up in a few weeks when she get big enough to come home.. I just want to be asd prepared for her as I can be. Mr wibbles seemed to have no issues with eating... Are there any issues that can arrise during breeding?
