Being that I spent quite some time reading this whole thread from page 1, I figure i'll put my two cents in here too. I myself love the way a spider looks and will end up aquiring one fairly soon. As well as breeding them. Everything that I've ever read on evolution and genetics and such states that through selective breeding, outcrossing it is possible to correct/eliminate unwanted abnormalities. Through modern medicine look at all the human illnesses and defects that have been dealt with over time. Granted, I cant see hobby or big time breeders looking at snake dna in a lab with scientists trying to solve the puzzle, it will probably happen out of pure luck. But, if it weren't for those dedicated people that do strive to breed for quality animals there might never be a solution for a "guaranteed" non wobbling spider or kinked caramel or whatever someone finds next. So, I do thank all those that do work with these defects trying to perfect them, as long as it is their intentions and not just the quick buck. If it weren't for their efforts we all would only have a ton of normals, this hobby wouldn't be as big as it is, and keeping herps of all sorts would not be what it is today.
