I was wondering what everyone else thinks?
I love morphs and plan to have several someday, however just through observation with my own and at the vet clinic I work at it just seems that normal’s are heartier. My normal is very laid back and doesn’t stress, has never missed a meal ever and is very content. My pastel gets stressed if you look at him funny.
What brought this to my mind is, I had a client today at work that called and said her snake was having seizures when it eats, she just got it at a show a month ago and this was the first time the snake was interested in food. This person came in with a bumblebee ball python that she bought because it was pretty (wish I could impulse buy like that) and new nothing about. The doctor and I looked it over and it seemed healthy no parasites, signs of RI etc, so I pulled up the spider wobble video on you tube and showed it to her, and that was exactly what her snake was doing. I explained to her that the wobble is normal and is attached to the spider gene and that we could do nothing about it. I printed off the care sheet on here and gave it to her and basically went over the things the breeder should have.
I know that that is normal for a spider BP however (don’t slam me) should we really breed morphs that have obvious neurological issues that are inherited because they are beautiful. I am not criticizing anyone just really wanted to know what everyone else thinks not trying to fuel a fire or anything.
