Does your spider wobble?
Every spider I have kept has had some wobble. I've always wondered what type of neurological disorder could be linked to the reduced pattern mutation spider gene. I always find it somewhat entertaining to watch them wobble their heads around though lol.
I've always found spiders to be the best eaters too. Anyone else agree?
Here is a short clip of feeding my little bee.. http://youtu.be/1_9NysLSMkc

I love my spider, she's one of my favorites for sure. Her wobble isn't too noticeable except during feeding.

Mine has very little wobble but certainly has some serious personality. He is also a garbage disposal when it comes to eating

Not too bad. My spider's only came out when he was about to strike, he would miss big time here and there. My bee on the other hand, he does some weird moves sometimes when you are holding him or when you put him back in the tub. What he does is puts his head up pretty high then slowly starts turning his head upside down or tilts it. For someone that doesn't know to look for that, they might not notice anything weird, but anyone who knows about the spider wobble would notice it.
Every spider has a slight wobble at the very least. Those ones would be like my spider, that it only shows when prey is introduced, and even then you have to know what to look for.
