Message: <blockquote data-quote="m0lsx" data-source="post: 178864" data-attributes="member: 29323">I have brought a few mature T's, several unsexed juvies, which is where you can waste money if you are not careful, as too many people sell males as unsexed juvies. I have also brought lots of slings. Here in the UK we pay significantly less for our T's than you do, so £50 can buy us a sexed female. Allegedly. However, if buying from certain sellers, as my wife found out a few months ago, then buying a sexed female does not automatically guarantee you a female. But that is not a big loss at our prices & was simply a lesson learnt. No more sexed females from that European dealer for us.With your prices, if only owning a few T's, I think I would want a female if at all possible, but I would be extra careful about where I buy it from.</blockquote>
