selling tarantulas

[Tyler Lawrence]

when you breed tarantulas and you get say 400 babies how would you sell those before they become adults because no one can house 400 adult Ts right? also how do you know what to sell them for? Thanks

you either advertise and sell them that way or you wholesale them to a dealer.

because no one can house 400 adult Ts right?

Oh yes, trust me they can.

This is a VERY important thing to consider before you attempt any breeding project.

Wholesale the majority to deal with numbers. And keep a small portion for advertising/selling. If I had 400 slings, here's what I would do:
300/350 - Wholesale
50 - Advertise/ sell off.

If you're a breeder making a living selling T.'s, then it's on a different perspective of dealing with 400 slings. As for me, I just breed for side money for college, but I ain't no big business breeder.

NOTE: Don't breed if you don't have time, money, or resources. Because selling T.'s is not a good source of income, unless your business or very reputable or selling well.

whole sale most to a breeder or dealer

then you can give me some

I wouldn't doubt the mental fragility of T hobbyist, I am sure they would somehow figure out how to house 400 adult Ts

When i used to breed tarantulas i sold off 90% maybe left 10 for myself if it was a sp i wanted. Otherwise, sold off or gave away for shipping fee!
