Pinstripe Wobble?
I was considering picking up a spider or pinstripe sometime soon but went away from the spider because i know many get the "wobble." i didnt mind it at first but decided maybe to get another morph instead. I also read from a few people that woma's get it too but there seems to be conflicting opinions on that. my question is will pinstripes get it? i havnt found any info on it but thought i may get some opinions on it anyway

You can't "get" a wobble unless you give your snake neurological damage of some sort (overheating for example...). The wobble is a genetic flaw of spider, and IMO is NOT a reason to be turned off by them. But, to each their own. To answer your question, pinstripes are not known to wobble, so as long as you pick a healthy one from a reputable breeder you shouldn't come across it.

Ive personally not heard anything about pinstripes wobbling. Also spiders and womas do have wobbles but its really depends about the individual animal, ive seen some spider that almost cork screw but personally my spider has no wobble at all, no problems in the strike & when feeding. So really it depends on the animal and how sever or if it all it has a wobble.

I haven't heard of pins wobbling. Mine definitely doesn't. My spider girl doesn't have any noticeable wobble either though. Pretty much all spiders will wobble to some degree. Some will be barely noticeable and only during feeding or when stressed, other spiders will corkscrew so badly that they seem to have no motor control whatsoever.... As long as the wobble isn't having a negative impact on the animal, I don't have a problem with it. I hesitated to get into spiders for a long time for the same reason, but now I'm glad I did...

I wouldn't write off spiders just because they wobble. Some have such a small one or none at all. My spider girl only wobbles at feeding time when she gets excited. And even then it's pretty minor.
I've also heard that spiders have some of the best personalities.

Spiders are one of the most attractive base morphs. And I won’t work with them period. No wobbles can become big wobbles or even train wrecks and I simply don’t want to produce animals that have the potential to spend their lives crawling around upside down and corkscrewing. Even if this only represent a small number of the spiders produced even producing 1 is to many for me. To each their own but I think pinstripe is a nice substitute if you’re looking for a pattern/colour morph and is free of the wobble “quirk”

None of my pins wobble. If you are looking to stay away from the wobble you're safe with pins. Prior to overheats or neuro damage as already been said.

Re: Pinstripe Wobble?
Pinstripes don't wobble. If they do stay far away from it.
Spiders wobble and all should be expected to have some type of wobble. If you want to breed them it's up to you. I personally love spiders and do breed them.
I have read recently that some woma's do have a wobble. I'll try to find the post for ya.

Re: Pinstripe Wobble?
well, i ended up going with a spider and i have to say im glad i did. i got a great looking baby male. hes got a little "unnatural looking movement" in his head but it gives him alot of personality. it seems like hes alot more social as compared to my female. real cool little guy so far. we'll see where the wobbles go from here i guess but i dont think it'll be a big problem
