Fair price?

[ZooKeeperKarin]

I have finally had success with breeding supers. They are still small, but doing well. I have had one reptile store owner ask me to contact him if I had success, since he couldn't get babies himself (maybe he wasn't patient enough?).
I have no idea what a fair price would be to ask for them. I'd start out selling a few hundred at a time.
What would you all think?
Thx!

Occasionally I sell a box of 200 + overcount for $10 to a few in our herp society. If you're looking at retail outlets you also have to consider packaging. If the store handles packaging it would hardly be worth it to sell to them since cantainers aren't cheap. I use recycled deli containers like yogurt cups, etc, to keep costs down. Craigslist is also another sales outlet some have used.

I had gotten some wax worms from our local bait store yesterday and they sent them home in film canisters. You could check the local photo processors for empty cartons. I know a lot just pitch them.

That may be a great idea considering I live near the home city of Kodak!

That could work out nicely for ya. They can't fit too many in there tho. I think there were a dozen with some wood shavings and it was quite crowded in that lil canister.
