Tortoise hutch auction

It is yard sale and auction time at The Big River again. We have , inadvertently, managed to accumulate a pretty good collection of odds and ends that really need a different home.

When you think you got the right comfy spot….

It’s auction time at Big River Pets! One set up 40 breeder with frogs goes on the block today (see video for more details). Please enter your bid below in whole dollar amounts. Each bid must be it’s own new comment (don’t edit an old bid or reply to a previous bid). I will be calling the auction this week end, so get your bids in now! Or… buy it now for $200

It’s auction time again!

Let’s try something a bit different this time. I’m auctioning off this tank and stand. And separately the fish, decor and scape. Tanks is 36”x18”, stand is a bit bigger. Bidding for the fish starts at retail, these are grown out display fish. We will be taking bids on line or in store, remember to be specific what you are bidding for. Auction will end Monday and need to be picked up by Wednesday. Please remember to place bids as a new comment not a reply to a comment and don't edit your old bid, leave a new one, otherwise they will be missed or out of timeline. Also, the fish and scape in this tank will go into my new display tank unless someone is burning to take them home. This is an opportunity to own them not a clearance. Feel free to message me if you aren't sure of their value, all under value bids will be removed.

When its rearanging day in the reptile room! We got a mess at the moment but cable maintenance and presentation is gonna be better when done!

More babies at the Big River. Anyone guess who we have growing out here? #bigriverpets #axolotl #axolotls #axolotlsofinstagram #babyaxolotl
