    So again what are the suggestions, stop breeding spiders and label those who do irresponsible?
    Thanks for your reply, but please don't twist my words. Snakes (or any animal) that are known carriers of inheritable deformities should not be bred for the purpose of selling.

    With the right amount of hard work, and forethought into breeding efforts, inheritable deformities can be bred out.

    Thanks for your response, but you're misinterpreting my statement.
    It's fairly obvious there is a difference between mutations that are aesthetic, and those which are nervous disorders (wobble) or physical deformities (duckbill, small eyes, missing eyes, kinks).

    Let's see this thread is about wobble/spinning.

    Wobble in Spiders cannot be bred out so what is the responsible thing to do, stop breeding them?

    I didn't misinterpret, and not there is no difference it is a genetic deformity that causes the animal to not physically present the same physical appearance as the atypical member of the species..

    The only difference is that people choose what deformity they choose to buy and which they choose disregard..

    I wish the Spiders didn't have the wobble of any kind (minor or extreme). With that said I love the Spider morph it would be a shame if no one breed them anymore

    It is an interesting morph. I've seen some awesome bees in particular!
    Wouldn't it be great if the better breeders worked to eradicate the wobble?

    You still have missed all the points regarding wobble it does not matter if you are responsible or a better breeder it CANNOT be bred out.

    At least do some research on the subject

    You state that the wobble can't be bred out. Can you point us toward your sources to back that up?
