Re: sick bp ?
They do sometimes sleep very soundly. I have one that sometimes sleeps with his head tilted on its side, and he's VERY asleep when he does that. Freaked me out a bit the first time I saw it because I'd never seen one lay that way.
Does she have access to fresh water at all times? If so, then there is no reason to believe she is dehydrated.

Re: sick bp ?
i worried that odd.. feeding is every 5-6 days.. so water is changed every 3 days

I dont see a problem with changing the water frequently.. if anything it would help to prevent bacteria from growing in the bowl. She doesn't have any other symptoms you noticed, anything off about her in the past week or so?
I hope your little one is alright keep us posted

Then ( though I am very new to this) it seems like your girl is just fine and keeping an eye on her will probably reassure you the best.

You said this was a spider... have you ever read anything about head wobble in that morph? Mine gets himself into some really weird positions sometimes...
