Leaving to Basic Training Soon

[cougarkeeper0]

Hello all,
I will be leaving to the Marines in late July. The only problem is that I have so many Leopard Geckos and a few Crested Geckos and also about 600 roaches of four different species that will be left uncared for. I have tried to sell them to a few local pet shops but no luck so far. What should I do???

Depends on what you want to do with them really. How many animals are we actually talking about?
You could:
-Wholesale them as one big lot to someone for cheap
-try to sell them individually (classsifieds here are very cheap)
-adopt them out
-try to find someone that would foster home them until you get back
-eat them (I hear leo on a stick is a tasty treat)

the roaches you should have no problems selling or maybe give some to each person that buys/adopts your geckos.

The roach idea is great. I have 25 Leos and 6 Cresteds. Most of my Leos are females Het for Raptor. I also like the wholesale idea. I'm gonna do that. I would gladly give them to experienced keepers, but the thing is that I need to take care of some stuff (pay) before I leave. I'm gonna sell them for 50-60 a piece. I'm taking individual pictures so I can post them on the classifieds by tomorrow.

Could make a few classified here on the forum.
