Adam, I respectfully have to disagree. A spider is a spider is a spider. Some big breeders charge what they do because they know someone will buy from them just for the name. If you put that spider in a tub with 100 other spiders, I bet you couldn't tell the difference. Many "big" breeders don't even produce half the low end morphs they sell.....it's not worth their trouble. Just keep your thoughts in the back of your mind when you are producing animals of your own. How will you feel if your potential customers are buying other spiders for 2x what you are asking....because yours are "not anywhere near the quality" of the big guys? A small name does not mean inferior quality. I'm not trying to sound offensive. I'm just trying to point out you'll be in the same situation some day. No disrespect to NERD, but please try not to disrespect the little guys either. Afterall, I'm pretty sure all spiders originally came from NERD.
