How would you get the world out in your area that you have X animal for sale?

I just picked up a colony of ASFs and I'm not sure how to go about advertising them. I created an account on craigslist, but after reading through it, I'm sure I will get banned from posting on the site. Even if I don't say what the price is for the animal, it's not hard to figure out that they have a price and that I'm breeding them by emailing me and asking about them.

I really don't know how to advertise them locally :(

I know on the craigslist here in San Diego rodent and reptiles never get flagged even from breeders. People only flag puppies or kittens with high prices. Just post them up as feeders.

You won't get banned, but you may get flagged, and you will have to re-post your ad. Just post them as pets or feeders.

Time for some foot work..get a list of every pet store in your area..call them to see if they sell reptiles and/or feeder rodents. Then once you have your list time to go for a drive, make a personal stop at every location and sell sell sell..your going to get some turn downs, thank them and move on..

Ok I was worried I would get banned and I only have one phone number. I don't care if someone flags it, I'll post it again.

I've already done this. One is iffy on it, one will only take them if I start breeding them large scale, and one will only take them as "surrendered pets." There are two more in a 1 hour radius of me, but they don't have rodents, so I doubt they would take them. I live in rural Iowa so I don't have many options when it comes to pet stores.

Got flagged in less than 3 hours :rolleyes: I don't know if it will even be worth it to keep posting it if it's going to get flagged within a few hours.

Maybe just breed them for your own snakes.

yea, you'll get kicked. I remember when I was looking to get rid of some rats, I took a little gander at the terms of service..and they include not selling ANY animal.
