Anyway, I am downsizing on Aquariums. So here is whats for sale!

I have several things for sale & everything can be picked up. I will have more items for sale after the tanks are gone. I can meet you halfway, you can come pick them up here or I can ship them to you. Shipping is basic Flat Rate, 2-3 day shipping in the US only.



Unless otherwise stated, pricing for shipping is as follows;

I am open to trades, either Aquarium related or pet chicken related. I can combine any and all the items for sale to trade for my needed items. Below are a few things I am looking for.

  • 5ft tall, 100+ft long 1/2in Chicken wire.

  • Medicated Chick starter crumbles.

  • Layer Crumbles.

All Betta are $8 each. Buy more & I'll lower the price. I would rather sell in groups, not one by one, unless you are picking them up.
I just need to stop buying them, so they all must go!

I have another female, but still looking for her picture. She is bluish, though.

Chickens!

Wow, I have got to stop with these over due updates!
Ok, so, I have chickens! They are Black Japanese Bantam. About 15 of them total, very cute and flighty things, they came with babies!
I drove to Harrisonburg last Friday to pick them up. Lady was about an hour late, I got worried it would be a scam, since I paid half for them via Paypal. Luckily, after I walked back from a near by store, there she was, with my new pets!
They are such little birds, smaller than a Crow, and if you have ever seen one in person, they are big birds. I packed them in my little car and drove through the lovely Blue Ridge Mountains. They slid slowly to the other side of their boxes on ever turn, and then clucked in disapproval. I drove as slow and careful as I could without pissing off the line of people behind me too much.
They have laid 3 eggs total. One I picked up and fridge'd it, since it rolled out of the nest. The other two had been laid in a new nest and are next to each other. Now I wonder if a hen is laying a clutch to sit and hatch this late in summer!
Chillie wants to eat them, Kohaku is still on the fence about them. He likes to sniff and know every animal before e makes a decision, lol. The cats will never know them, they stay indoors. Unless I free range the chickens, that is.
Pictures tomorrow...I hope!
