    Re: Spider Wobbles??

    Spiders wobble. Each Spider does it to some extent. Some Spiders are trainwrecks that are almost heartbreaking to see. Others are so mild that most people would never notice.

    I for one am not intimidated by the wobble. I love the patterning, I want to breed combos with it, and I accept that I might get unlucky and produce a trainwreck at some point.

    Frankly as long as the animal can function and feed and poop and allsuch, I don't care how wobbley they are.

    Mine doesn't. Now i cannot speak of her first year of life, since I did not own here then, but since I've owned her, never seen it. Mayb she had it earlier in life, I don't know, but she is a no wooble spider now. With that said I know each one of her spider babies has the possiblity of having a bad wooble. I'm not saying she has better genes or something, just she does not wooble, what do you want me to say? She has a wooble but you just can't see it? Lol
    Like someone else said, flip your snake and see how fast they right themselves. Watch them when you feed them and see if they tilt their head just a nickel's worth. ALL Spiders wobble...some are just very, VERY slight and somewhat situational.

    It doesn't mean there's anything wrong with them though.

    It is sad and makes me not want a spider Do any other morphs have this problem? Or do they have any different specific problems like the spider?
    It makes me sad FOR THAT SNAKE, but it doesn't deter me from wanting/keeping Spiders and Spider combos. And yes some other morphs have issues present...to my knowledge Caramel Albinos have spinal deformities, someone correct me if I'm wrong? But again so long as they can live and thrive, no reason not to keep them. After all, as someone else said a while back, other morphs may have issues we don't even know about, such as limited vision or other invisible defects. So long as they eat and poop and breed, they can have a decent quality of life.
