    How many females per male?
    How many different females do you allow your males to breed with per season?

    Anywhere from 1 -8. I personally have never bred over 8 females with one male. However, with that said, most of my males will see 4 or 5 females. Some special projects may only get 1 or 2 to prevent overproducing a project, or some males that are really important, that I think will be in demand the following season may see as many as 7 or 8.

    I hope that helps,

    Great, I just wanted to make sure I was not over extending my male. I have a male spider and am planning to pair him with 3-4 females next year. TY

    Right now for my older males that I know are good strong breeders and eaters I'll give them 4-5 females at one time. Younger males they may only see one or two girls..It all is going to depend on the animal really.

    I like to have a 1 to 4 or 5 ratio.
