    Prices in the hobby

    Actually the prices have dropped since the 90s. My first GBB sling was 35.00 as well as my first C. versicolor. That is what they cost in todays market. The value of the dollar is less now so they are cheaper.

    Sling numbers

    Age/size can also be a factor in the number of slings produced. I have had small versicolor produce 50-60 slings and bigger versis drop 100+ slings. I would imagine that older females will drop smaller sacks too, but I don't know this for sure.

    Poecilotheria fasciata slings

    I really don't have an opinion either way. I thought it was rather funny. I would love to be a full time breeder, but that is not in my immediate future LOL.

    Poecilotheria fasciata slings

    I just saw a rant from one of the dealers on his blog. It was his opinion that people should not buy from breeders that aren't trying to make their living off the spiders. He claimed breeders were defined as people with day jobs and people trying to make a living on the spiders. He seemed to...

    I breed every time I get an opportunity. If I am fortunate enough to breed the oddities, I most certainly try:)
