    Dont mean to hijack but I have a question... If I bred a bumble bee to a normal and got a couple pastels, would those pastels not carrying ther spider gene, even though they came from one, still have a wobble?

    No. They dont have the spider gene, so they wouldn't have the wobble. It is anything with the spider gene(pattern).

    I have a male pastel, whose father was a NERD line bumblebee..........now, he looks like a pastel, although an extremely light one.........but he does have the slightest wobble and I have noticed it a few times. he is not sick, and he never misses a meal. But I do believe it is a true wobble.

    Just curious? have you did any of these breeding's then observed the resulting offspring over a period of time to verify that there is no spider influence such as wobble,corkscrewing or any thing else?

    I have seen similar wobble in clutches I produced breeding for spiders,some of the non spiders were observed to exhibit the wobble after time.they all ate and grew at a normal rate.

    My Pastel male is the son of a Bumblebee to a normal. 0 wobble.

    The shop I do business with in Miami has plenty of sibs of spiders (which he has had over a year now), and I have never noticed what you described.

    If it is true (not saying that it isn't) it's news to me.

    I think there are some spiders with wobbles and others without. I also Think that many people have put the wobble off as no big deal and therefore breed an animal with a wobble, I personally have a male breeder spider I acquired him
    About 3 years ago from Snakemans Exotics and have bred him getting successful clutches 2x. Now first of all he has no wobble, not even a slight one. And never has. Secondly, I have 3 of his babies in my racks still, one spider female from 2 years ago and 1 normal male from last year, and a spider male from last year. All babies do not nor ever have had any wobble, not even the slightest. There are spiders out there without wobbles. My partner on some projects has 3 adult females their first year is this season that have no wobble. Babies from spider parents with wobbles have wobbles and that can go for spiders or non spiders. In my experience with breeding my spider anyways all of the babies he's had thus far have had no wobbles.
