Question
I HAVE 39 LEOPARD GECKO HATCHLINGS!I can not keep any of them and i dont know where to sell them.i do not trust pet stores and i want them to go to a good home.Can you help me with this i will sell them anywhere just not at a pet store.

Answer
This is certainly something to consider before producing animals.

I recommend advertising on Fauna Classifieds.  Paying for a membership at Kingsnake.com is also an excellent idea.

If they are normal leopard geckos, you may not get very much for them.  Check the current prices.  Oodle, Hoobly, and Ebay Classifieds are also good places to advertise online.  If you have a local classifieds papers, advertise there.

Craigslist allows only adoption with a small rehoming fee, but you can try advertising on there.  Also, see if there are any other local leopard gecko breeders who may be willing to take them off of your hands to sell at expos, or overseas--but you have to be less worried about where they eventually wind up, in the latter case.
