First let me say it takes guts to come to a forum and stand up for yourself that way Bravo!
Now you say
if any of you are hatching out snakes right now, you would know that nothing is selling.
I'll have to call BS on that hand my friend people are selling stuff left and right. The problem is that it's just not flying off the shelf like candy. Well guess what that's part of business.

i will put my spider up against the best spider out there, and i am sure it will eat within the next week.
I wouldn't.. yes it looks nice but its a non-started baby that anyone who had any respect for their customers wouldn't even consider offering for sale. The look of the animal is only slightly with in your control. How ever getting it to eat is and that is part of quality and because your snake isn't eating I'd say its bottom of the barrel as far as over all quality. That would be like going to the car dealership and having them say "oh is a great looking car..not sure if it runs but hey it looks good"

I have 5 more clutches of eggs hatching and need to move some stuff.
Why? can you not house and feed everything you plan to produce if thats the case let me let you in on a little secret that a wise man once shared with me. Ready Taking note ......You should have thought of that prior to trying to breed for five clutches. If you can't house and feed the animals you produce. Guess what YOU DON"T PRODUCE THEM!!!!! or you breed Sea Monkeys or something you can handle.

but like most people in this economy you propably don't have the money. so when money is scarce what do they do. they slash prices.
You know funny the thing I only see that mentality at Garage sales.."hey that half working grill ain't move..Slash that price by half." Whens the last time you saw your local Jag dealership say "People Ain't Buy so Were giving them away"
They don't lower their prices just cause the economy is bad. If you can't afford a 350.00 Spider guess what you can't buy one.

Call BaileyandBailey see if they have any spiders left, or 8ball, or VPI, I can guarantee they aren't "slashing prices" their saleing every spider they can produce every year and guess what their getting market value for them.

Now for the helpful part.. Breath..get the little spider to eating and put 350.00 on him and sale him..hes worth it. By you putting 150.00 on him your saying to your customers "I don't think hes worth 350." keep with the market prices, produce quality animals and have fun. The money is the aftermath of all of that.

Best of luck!
