    I realize that, but some people seem to be under the impression that anything with Spider in it will spin around the tub uncontrollably...which is just wrong. Sure they all have the potential for this...but from my experience a vast majority only exhibit very slight signs, if any at all...just seems to be one of those things that's blown way out of proportion...and any morph is genetically inferior to a normal...i.e...less than "perfection"...

    If you think $500 is over priced then you should see what they were going for just a few short years ago... I think $500 is downright Cheap!

    Actually it is a pretty widely accepted fact that all spider mutations to some degree have a wobble. Whether it's just a simple head tilt or a full blown cork screw.

    That being said...I still love my spiders and my bee! As stated...You get what you pay for. Do research and buy a high quality animal! And $500 is dirt cheap for a dual gene animal!

    Re: Bumblebee's are over-rated ?

    IMO, most Spider morphs are way overrated. I prefer the Spider in it's original beauty. That being said, my favorite morph is the Spider Albino, which I think it's because the Albino genetics don't effect the pattern of the Spider.

    But, to each their own. Everyone has varied opinions. I do think you get what you pay for though. If you want an ugly, browned out Bumblebee, pay a meager amount. If you want a Bumblebee that retains some of it's vibrant colors, get ready to dig into your bank account.

    Yeah...like I said, not many are full blown cork-screwers...the vast majority have maybe a slight wobble when feeding or a slight head tilt...I've hatched several clutches of Spiders and most show almost no signs...just kind of irks me when those who choose not to work with them come off with a holier than thou attitude towards those who do...
