Giving a Discount

[Jabberwocky Dragons]

I offer something from a similar but from a very different approach with my dragons. Bearded dragons come with a 48 hour health guarantee. This is reasonable in the industry and generous compared to some. For no charge, I will extend the health guarantee to a length of my discretion (usually 1-3 weeks) if pics of the set up are sent before receiving the dragon. It makes sense to link the set up with an extended health guarantee if it can be done with little "fuss". Your goal should be offer an incentive that helps those who want to take advantage of it while not impacting those who don't (I'm assuming that $10 is already an upcharge built in your price otherwise that's a very high percentage discount on low priced snakes).

I still would like to see them go to good homes though. How do you guys insure that the babies you produce go to prepared homes? Or is there even a way to insure that without taking a huge loss in sales?

You can offer incentives and refuse sales where you sense something is off but you can never ensure a prepared home. Not possible short of in house inspections and I certainly would never buy any animal or product in existence where the seller demanded this. Remember, it's just an incentive and going to far will just ensured you get 'gamed' with set up pics from the internet. You'll learn to get a sense of people over time and can refuse sales at any time. I have in the past and am sure that I will again.
