Banning the Spider morph will cut back MAJORLY on the number of morphs you will see at any location. It is a major cornerstone for MANY morph combinations.

The Spider mutation is a cornerstone of our hobby. There is seriously no good reason to ban these animals at all, yet alone a specific mutation.

Keep the spider morph. The Genetic is such a massive part of royal python combintions, banning it would see a huge decline in such stunning combo snakes.

This is a ridiculous attempt at banning something that is not worth the time and effort to attempt a ban on

Keep the Spider! This is a very essential part of the Ball Python world. It would be a discrace if it were to be banned.

One it be a massive shame plus if you're going to ban the spider spider morph then you have to been spot noses and all the other barth defects.

The spider morph is one of the calmed pythons there is in my book. My favorite of all time.

Banning 1 gene of snake because of a minor genetic/neurological defect is ridiculous when so many other genes carry the same defect and are not being targeted. Many others carry a different type of common defect and are not being targeted and banned. The discrimination is pointless and hurts small business owners who are working with this gene.

I have multiple spiders, and spider morphs. Only one has a noticeable wobble, which hasn't affected her at all. This ban is ridiculous.

To ban one morph over another is a failure to the industry. There is no reason. To not have spiders allowed at shows will take a lot of people inventory away and you will lose a lot of traffic and vendors. Poor petition.

My Pewter bee if happy, healthy a great feeder & beautiful. In captivity I see no reason why spider morphs don't thrive. She has the slightest wobble at feeding time, she never seems in distress or in pain. What next, ban Autistic children from school because some people don't like to see them not conforming to what is considered normal.
