It looks like woma might technically be a homozygous lethal gene in that the homozygous pearl version might not be capable of surviving to breeding based on what is posed on the NERD page for that mutation.
Spider might be the same but the only evidence I've seen is the lack of a public proven homozygous spider 8 years into the production. It's hard to prove something from its absence so we really don't know what the story is on a homozygous spider yet.
Homozygous lethal just means you wouldn’t want to do breedings with the mutation on both sides. It doesn’t necessarily mean there is anything wrong with the heterozygous version and in the case of spider it’s proven to be very popular by it’s self and for stunning crosses with other mutations.

The Super Woma has issues......no question. It makes for STUNNING variations but they are only 70% there!
The spider gene is NOT A LETHAL GENE...not even a chance so I have no idea what or why anyone would say such things.
