I know some folks who purposely won't use the bottom or top spots of their rack because of temp variations. The high temps may have stressed her a bit and exaggerated her wobble but I wouldn't say nuero damage. Once again I have seen much worse. I have also seen animals get burns from excessive heat without any nuero damage. What I saw was spider wobble, nothing else and I have seen several hundred spiders in my time.

Also as far as laying upside down, I have seen several spiders do this as well.
i've caught my bee laying a little inverted before.. i see the spider wobble as well in her, but from what i could find online, overheating can cause the exact same symptoms as the spider wobble even in animals without spider in them..? i know spiders wobble can get worse or better after time, but she went from barely showing any wobble at all (except a little while feeding) to this in less than a week.. i wouldn't say i've seen several hundred in my time, just the three in my collection and the ones i've seen at shows and a couple friends'.. but none of them had the head "twitch" she has. is that common with spiders with bad wobbles?
