Breeding Question?

[norcalsteel]

My Veiled just laid a clutch of 49 eggs. My question is do any of you breeders limit the amount of eggs you incubate or do you always do the full clutch. Money is not an issue as far as raising them up. My concern is that Veiled doesn't seem to be the breed of choice and it may be difficult to find them all homes.

You basically have to give them away. I used to sell 50-100 lots for $5-10 a piece. Can cost more to raise (feed, electricity, H2O) them than what you get back. Shipping alone will run you $40-65. Personal choice. I would talk your local mom & pop pet stores, you may find some interest there. Some places will buy them in bulk, but most raise their own. I was feeding 6,000 crickets in 5 days to 160+ baby veils at one time. They will make a comeback again in a couple years. Everything rotates, as history repeats.
