Fact or Myth?

[Skyrivers]

I've been told by a local keeper of a few BP's to stay away from any with the Spider gene as he says they are very nippy and don't grow out of it. Is this true? And are there and other specific genes to stay away from when looking for pet first BP's? And lastly, any difference in temperament between males and females?
