How much for them? How long does it take for a female to be able to breed? I know the females can live for a long time , like 15-20 years, but I don’t know what age they can breed at. I have a male I raised from a sling that is about 3.5 years old now.

You can breed a female at 3/4 of their average adult leg span. So I'd say a female Brazilian Black can be paired at 5.5-6". Age doesn't really matter. Also, you can look at their spermatheca after molting to see if they have sclerotized (turned dark). That's another way you can tell they are ready to breed. I sold one of my females yesterday but I still have one left. She is $350 plus shipping ($400 shipped LAG).
