Question

[ddvw123abc]

What should I do if I get Orchid Nymphs and a mate a male and a female and my parents wont let me sell the babies? Should I give some to my friends to try and raise or should I try to keep them alive then when they are older sell them?

Why would your parents not let you sell the Orchid nymphs?

Also, your friends would need to be set up and willing to care for them with fruit fllies, etc.

I think the best idea, if you can't sell them, would be to pass them onto another good breeder in your area.

 

[mantisman07]

could you not sell them on his behalf ian? and paypal the money through?

if you had any contacts in US it shouldnt be too hard to do.

 

[Ian]

I'd be happy to do that...but I guess it would be no different in his parents persepcitive, than him selling them himeself.

 

[mantisman07]

ah, but they wouldnt have to know.

Wait until you hear his parents reasons to suggest going behind their backs. As for giving them to your friends, I wouldn't recommend it unless they are already experienced.

To the poster, would you please clarify whether it's the selling aspect or the donating aspect your parents have a problem with.
