Hmm...well-tempered...well, I guess listen for any hissing when you go to pick her up. Although I don't find the hissing to be a problem..its cute. Um...squirming. If you're holding a baby, and it's squirmy, that's probably a sign that it's not very used to handling. If they're actively exploring you when you're holding them, that's fine though. Of course, if it bites or strikes a lot..but that's a no-brainer, lol.

Generally when looking for a bp to choose, some healthy signs to look for are actively flicking its tongue, firm grip, curious and exploring, no wheezing or any liquids near the nostrils or mouth, no patchy skin left from a bad shed, the environment it's being kept in is clean, no scars or wounds, and if you flip it over so it's belly up, it rights itself easily. Those are all signs of a healthy bp to choose.

I'd say in general, temperment is hard to look for when buying a baby, because they're usually naturally defensive and scared. They'll probably hiss a bit when being picked up, maybe act shy and ball up, and some might be a bit strike-happy, lol. Conditioning them to have a nice temperment is all in the keeper I think. Regular handling, and good husbandry will usually ensure a happy and easy-going bp.
