I am not exaggerating about laying coiled upside down 24/7. It is only the front half of it's body but it is pretty disturbing to see.By 40 years I mean no one knows if spiders will live to reach the average lifespan of ball pythons. Do you think it is "asking a lot" to expect a snake to live to reach it's normal lifespan? Everyone says they eat and breed fine but I am more interested in whether or not this defect will affect them long term. I can easily find a spider that does not wobble too bad but that is not the point. I have no guarantee that it's offspring would not be bad spinners. That is why I choose not to breed or keep them. I don't look down on anyone at all that does choose to breed them, but I personally don't want to breed a defective trait into my animals. I am also not breeding to get super cinny's for the same reason even though I think the Super cinny's defects are less severe than the spiders problems.Originally Posted by westcoastjungle
