With all due respect do you have 2000+ enclosures to put them in as they age?
Respect takin', and with all due respect, no need for 2000 enclosures, just one, 1000 meals for 1000 slings and then another 500 meals for 500 slings, etc., etc. Like I said we don't all breed to sell. It also weeds out the weak:)

Ive wondered if you separate them or whatever because later on I plan on breeding some t's.
But yeah I would keep about 10 maybe 15 but the rest I would sell or give away so I can get money for more t's :D

Yea, that's just what I would do with a clutch that size. You're right, it's always good to have money for more T's!:)

One thing I will note--I've heard the bristles they kick are particularly bad, and while they aren't bite-happy, the fangs can reach the 1" mark. Even without taking venom into account--OUCH!

Not as much of an issue if you aren't a T-wrangler.

They're easy to handle. I take my big girl with me to bars on occasion and let people handle her. She's always a big hit. Interestingly, the women are always more eager than the men to handle. It takes the men a bit to get up the courage, lol.

Well,I would say it is a good beginner T.Mine is about as active as my Rosea was,and that is not saying to much. It is pretty petrockish.Hoping it gets better with age...
