Females... Whats the Deal?
OK mabey some one can explaine the extra value of females! All of the BP i have seen for sale the females are at least 500% more expensive than the males.
So... What makes the females more valubale? \
Thanks,
Sean
Re: Females... Whats the Deal?
You only need a certain amount of males, but you can never have enough females for your breeding projects. Males can breed multiple females.
Re: Females... Whats the Deal?
yep....Andrew is right.
If I had 5 big normal girls and a male Spider, for instance, he could breed all 5 and if each produced a clutch of 4 eggs, chances are 50/50 normal/spider, you would get a total of 20 eggs, 10 of those being spiders that you could sell.
that's just...potentially....
Re: Females... Whats the Deal?
From what I've seen you'll usually get like 3 males and 1 female in a clutch, but I'm not a breeder. Also, I'd imagine it has something to do with the fact that a female can give you more snakes. A male cant.

my het pied x normal breeding last season resulted in 1 male and 7 female babies. sometimes you hit the odds and sometimes you don't, but it is totally random. :)

It's sorta like porn.
The females get paid 3 times what the males do.

This is due to the fact every guy is just happy to have that job!
But back to snakes, its all about the ability of females to be more valuable when it comes to return on investment.
