shakey spiders...

[jglass38]

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

Me too!

Lol!

mine does it

[chz]

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.

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

This problem with the spiders will never be bred out. If it could be, it would have been done by now with all the crosses and more spiders that have been produced. It is something that is tied to the spider gene.

All spiders do it. Some to a lesser degree than others.
You should have been told about this by the breeder before you bought it.

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.

my spider doesnt do any of that, but I heard spiders can develope a tick or twitch sometimes

[bigballs]

well i wasnt aware of this behaviour when i purchased her. i checked her out and she was in shed so she was a little shy and i even checked her out at a previous show a couple months before and she looked fine and didnt shake. i wasnt told that she was "shakey" before the purchase but when i notified the breeder he said it was nothing to worry about. she hasnt ate for me yet and it has been three weeks now.


so i hope its nothing to worry about. i feel a little better after hearing all these responses. now hopefully i just get her to eat for me!

thanks guys!
