Question? If I want a female of a certain species, how many spiderings of that species should one purchase to increase the odds of obtaining a female?
You have a 50/50 chance, unless the spider is trans. I'd buy three.Question? If I want a female of a certain species, how many spiderings of that species should one purchase to increase the odds of obtaining a female?
Here is a related question: Does temperature in the room where the eggs incubate have anything to do with the sex ratio of the slings?

from my understanding eggs kept at a lower temperature tend to hatch male,mid range temperature female and high range temperature turn male?
Completely different species but I tried incubating 12 chicken eggs...6 in one incubator 6 in the other....2c difference apart in temperature,,,,one batch at the cooler temperature took 2 days longer to hatch than the ones kept at the higher temperature,
but I still ended up hatching almost all males in both batches so my little experiment didn't work but it was worth a try
LOL LOL LOLI found personally that if you incubate chicken eggs in water at close to 100 degrees c they taste amazing

having been the father to 4 daughters my (ex) wife and I did all the cooling of the something that sounds like tentacles, legs in the air to to help the boy swimmers - apparently they are like the hare and girls swimmers like the tortoise - eat more red meat and do a 1,000 pushups a night to up testosterone....oh damn, that was meant to be me right? LOLThat's actually genius. Never thought about that.
In humans it's possible to manipulate the sex of a Baby through temperacture (not 100% accurately but a noticeable effect) Wonder if anyone's done the science behind this
you did the experimental phase @Phil and it didn't work LOLhaving been the father to 4 daughters my (ex) wife and I did all the cooling of the something that sounds like tentacles, legs in the air to to help the boy swimmers - apparently they are like the hare and girls swimmers like the tortoise - eat more red meat and do a 1,000 pushups a night to up testosterone....oh damn, that was meant to be me right?

anyways, 4 pregnancies, 4 girls so guess the Tarantula Keepers guide page 119 doesn't count with humans....ha ha
No problem always happy to share my experiences....and my Pearls of wisdomyou did the experimental phase @Phil and it didn't work LOL
Thanks for sharing your findings with us...all in the name of research
