I think the wobble is just tied to the spider gene. I've read about people selectively breeding only barely visible when excited wobblers to each other and still getting animals with a more noticeable wobble. It seems to me that it's just linked the gene and it's all about how the odds play out if you get a bad wobbler vs a barely visible one, or if it starts early or later, gets better or worse with age, etc. I would think that if it was just tied to that one founding spider having a wobble, that eventually it would be able to get bred out, so I think it just has to be tied to the gene.
And damn. Wish I had 70k to gamble on genes with... or just 70k in general.
