Description
Henry arrived at summit pets April 28th, 2023. As a Spider Morph Ball Python, Henry does have a the Wobble Syndrome common in the Spider Morph genetic makeup. It is a dominant gene, therefore it cannot be carried, so the only individuals at risk for wobble are those with the visual characteristics of the spider morph or other specific genes.
Normally, this can cause issues with stability to strike food, but Henry isn't affected as bad and is plump, healthy, and happy! Henry eats well, but may have a quirky upside down look at times!
Due to the Wobble gene being present, Henry is not recomended as a breeding male, but rather a long-term pet!
