I'm probably going to get a lot of crap for saying this in a BP forum but, one of my boas does the same thing. He will take the prey item with out hesitation and so on, but when it comes to the eating part he will taste the rats whole body several times, and mouth it a few time before he finally figures out where the head is, it takes him forever. He is the only one I own that does that. But as long as your snake does eat, then I wouldn't worry about it. As far as the "spider wobble" I have never delt with one so I couldn't tell you what is actually going with your spider, which I bet is nothing. Also if your snake is eating off the tongs right now, I would definitely consider switching over to frozen food Items. Beautiful ball by the way.
