I think for the most part if you talk to some of the "experts" they will tell you that ALL Spiders have a wobble of some type whether you can see it or not. If they dont wobble when they are just cruising around or sitting there they will get a bit of a wobble as they get ready to strike at their prey. I am not one of those experts by any means but I was just lending to you what I have heard and read about them over the years. I have over a dozen Spiders of my own from Normals to het for Ghost and some Bumblebees. I would say that most of them have a wobble of some type from the smallest that you can hardly notice to some of them that seem to arch over backwards from time to time nearly 180 degrees. I think you will hear strong arguments from oth sides of they do wobble, they dont wobble. Some people will come on here and swear that their Spider has absolutly Zero wobble or unusual movements to it and then someone else will come on and say if it has no wobble at all it must be the only one in the world. Mine does not really bother me so if you like it I would keep her(him)and just accept it as a Spider trait. Thats my 2 cents worth. I sure would like to hear from some of the bigger breeders on the subject again. Jay
