    shakey spiders...

    ok so i might have read something about some spiders being very "shakey" and i was wondering if anybody has ever experienced this.

    i recently purchased a spider morph from a breeder at a recent past expo and it is pretty shakey. when i asked the breeder(who will remain unnamed) about this he explained a bit about shakeyness being normal in spiders and i have nothing to worry about.

    so has anyone here experienced this at all? is this a true thing and should i be worried? any advice for me?

    please comment!

    thanks in advance!

    My girl doesn't appear to do it...but sometimes she does stuff that my other one doesnt...and to me it just adds personality.

    Spiders have the tendancy to wobble, shake or even spin around when excited.

    Re: shakey spiders...

    Wow this is for real? Are they more friendly too? I'm getting a spider on a payment plan from Adam Wysocki at 8ballpythons and this just made me even more anxious to get my hands on one of these beautiful morphs.

    It is for real.

    Some of mine do it, some of mine don't as much.

    But it is for real.

    Re: shakey spiders...

    With responsible breeding, hopefully it can be bred out ... unless it is tied directly to the spider gene. I guess only time will tell.

    When i picked up my Spider BP, i was allowed to pick from the whole clutch. A lot of those guys were very snappy i noticed ... oh well, at least it means no problems with fussy eaters ... lol.
