I have also heard about breeders sexing slings that are over 2 cm and then selling of the males. personally i think its stealing and I find it hard to trust some breeders now. This might be the fact why synergy has had so many of his spiders molt in to males....
@ Trad, I am sure someone can sex a 2 cm sling with a microscope, but surely if you are willing to keep all your slings till they are 2 cm, and then sex a couple of hundred of them, why not raise the price and sell them as Guaranteed females.
Why would the breeder then sell all the males first. What will he gain if he already have the opportunity to make a hell of a lot of money with the females alone.
Thats a very good point... didn't think of that. Yet i have heard that people do it so I am still a little bit concerned even though I do agree with you phantom.
Yeah good point, phantom.... but i heard from a second breeder today "no names" that they infact do this... i got 5 P.regalis slings at 4 or 5 cm, he said good chances are that that breeder sold me males?? why would they do this? is it because they can make a good amount of money selling males off as "unsexed" coz no one will buy a male sling at that "unsexed" price?? they do this for mainly pokies i think coz u can sex them at a very young age... which im still bad at doing.|This whole thing has got my head spinning dont know what to think any more... maybe im being stupid in thinken this. just wanna put my mind at ease
