Breeding and selling

[Emily_Doughty]

So I just bought a few snakes from a breeder. He gave me eggs, snakes, a gravid female, and a few hatchlings from December of 2016. The hatchlings are the same as what I already have. So I'm trying to sell them.
What's the best way to do that?
I'm in a few local reptile Facebook groups, and have them listed there and on Craigslist. No ones been interested in them.
Maybe I have them listed for too much?
Originally I thought they were lesser. But someone told me they were lesser spiders. How much are they worth?
The dad is a lesser. The mom is a bumblebee.

How much did you list them for?

Some animals sell some not even when they do it does not mean they will sell overnight it can take months, some animals are over produced while there is little demand for them, there is also the question of reputation and being known not everyone want to give money to someone that just popped out of nowhere with no track record, and some people are not into buying snakes being flipped so quick, there is reasons why people like to buy from breeders.

So find the right avenue Morph Market, Fauna, Kingsnake.com see what those animals are worth and try to sell them there.

Chances how he gave you those because he could not move them himself.

The guy I bought everything from was moving from his house into a small apartment. He had been breeding for a few years and sold me everything for a good price.

I took them down until I could find a reasonable price to sell them for. How much do you think they're worth?

Eggs can be moved safely, if you are very careful. I wouldn't want to attempt it for a long distance though.

Yes, his incubator had a car adaptor. And I don't live too terribly far from him.

Lesser bee you are looking at $75/$125 in a saturated market
