[QUOTE="nbm02ss, post: 199336, member: 32472"] Kind of depends on the price of individual slings vs. the price of a confirmed female since I am the sort who wants a female. For instance: I bought a confirmed female GBB because at the time it was cheaper than buying multiple slings for a chance at a female, and my female LP cost roughly what 3 LP slings typically go for since LPs are obviously cheap since they have lots of babies. Rinse and repeat for your A. geniculatas, or Avics (as long as they aren't purple), Psalmopoeus, or even some Pokies like P. regalis. The Cyriocosmus gensus is a good example of readily available slings but rarely available confirmed females, and typically those confirmed females will run you a good penny, so for Cyriocosmus I would get 3-4 slings if I was after a female. Theraphosa blondi is a good example of rarely available and expensive slings but also rarely available and expensive females, so if I was after that particular species it would probably be whichever was available at the time.
