Yep, I can relate but that does not sadden me as much as the males that mature in the beginning of winter and waste away for 5-6 months.

You can ship in the winter time also Kim, definately to other danish people and maybe in the countries close to us!
It is more work for you, and cost more from buyer of course...

In the US, the slow time for spider sales is in the summer. People are on vacation and traveling & most aren't buying spiders.

Yeah I went almost 2 years without buying Ts, I just started collecting again 1 month ago My room is too small. I like collecting year round so I can keep up with hobby more though. In USA often winter time sells the most Ts I bet. Death of my A vesi & T stirmi I quit buying Ts .OFc I didn't give the stirmi a cyst it had it before I got her ,old owners cage was full of mold. Shipping I think triggered the cyst actually. The previous owner quit the T hobby years Ago I think, or quit this forum

MY only T still small are G pulchripes they refuse to grow!!! They need higher temps I bet.

Regardless of when you breed tarantulas, there's usually no telling when they'll lay egg sacs.
