    The Spider wobble is a danger to everyone around the animal!

    My male Albino Spider is starting to go through his wobble phase. Today I opened up his bin to offer him a rat.
    As I dangled it in front of him he got very excited as he smelled it (and all you Spider owners know what happens when a wobbler gets excited) and right as he was about to strike his head corkscrewed and his strike went wild, clamping down on the tip of my finger.
    Just look at this terrible BP bite damage!

    lol, a shaving nick hurts more than anything these guys can dish out.

    Of course it's my fault for not using tongs, but I just thought it was funny the wobble kicked in a just the right time to throw his strike off.

    I don't know how you made it through that, but I'm impressed.

    My little spider just started showing her wobbly ways too, but she hasn't drawn blood yet.
