[QUOTE="Arachnoclown, post: 178312, member: 27444"] Personally I sell slings as unsexed in large lots. Usually at 2nd instar before they need to be separated(100+per lot). I hardly ever sell singles but when I do they are unsexed. Hold backs from sacks I've produced or lots purchased for myself I sex by molt only. I raise them till I can sex them with a hand held magnifier. I will sell my extra sexed individuals or loan out. Confimed males and females I will sell with last molt or photos. Im kinda disturbed thinking people let the males just wither away. I personally have financed my entire hobby in the last 38 years from male spiders. I actually enjoy the males as much as the females...maybe more? [/QUOTE]
