Small home business raising widows?

ctaylor1 Oct 20, 2003 02:54 AM

I was wondering if there was a market for widows for use in the making of antivenin or other biological or educational purposes. Could it be a viable business, if done on a small scale?

Well, you'd need a lot of them to get any quantity of venom, since they inject so little. But it is possible. Check out this website, this guy does exactly what you were saying- he sells venoms to medical researchers. www.spiderpharm.com
