Lee, don't believ it for one minute. I have a few hets pied I produce that are absolute pigs. My female pied hit 1500 grams at about 20 months and now she's at 2200 grams. Her mother (het pied) is over 4000 grams and produced 9 eggs her first year (30 months) and 8 eggs her second year. I love my pieds and they eat like no other. IMHO, Spiders are by far the most hardy Ball morph there is. They eat and eat and eat. My male spider was 1700 grams at 15 months old and WAS NOT PUSHED. It's interesting to hear what other people experience.
