If you can get healthy babies, you can usually sell them for $100 or more, depending on location, colors, etc. This does not include shipping which is negotiated separately and is at least $75 most of the time.

On the other hand, while Red-foots are easy to breed, they do need to be several years old, in good health, etc. before it happens.

So, how many do you have and how big are they?

At 5 inches, unless they are cherry-heads or something, they are on the small side of breeding. You should have time (a couple more inches of growth generally) to do research and get things ready.

How long do you think till they grow a couple more inches? Two years or so?
