    Need some advice

    I was talking to a local hobby breeder the other day and he made me an offer and I'm wondering if it's a good deal or not. I have a pair of lessers that are breeder size but have never been bred. He wants to trade me his male spider g stripe proven breeder and a normal female proven breeder and give me $150 cash for my pair of lessers. What do you guys think?

    It's only a good deal if the deal interest YOU and that is something you want to work with.

    Do you have a female Genetic Stripe or any het genetic stripe in your collection? Are genetic stripe spiders something you want to work with?

    If you could get in any project of similar value to your animals right now what would you really want to get in.

    Ya I love genetic stripes and spider g stripes are one of my favorite morphs but it's recessive and I love my lessers. Not worth it to me I don't think. I'm really hoping for a BEL this year

    Plus theres a million other fairly cheap things you can do with having both a male & female already breeder size (after you get your BEL of course).

    Like others say, it all depends on what you want to work with!

    I'd keep the lessers too. But lessers are one of my favs and I drool over BELs so that's just my opinion. If you're the least bit doubtful about it now, I wouldn't do it. You may regret it later - especially if you love your lessers (can't put a price on that, lol). You can pick up a nice G stripe spider later. And if you make a few BELs and sell one or two, well there you go. Just my thoughts...

    Yup you guys are right. I've had doubts about it from the start so I'm pretty sure I'd regret it later. I love my lessers
