yabbies for sale soon!

[trout-hunter]

Hey everyone,
Im getting my bait supplier licence and then digging a few dams to start a little yabbie farm. Just wondering if theres much of a demand for them? I always have spider mudeye's in my dam (shorter than couta mudeyes) but not much demand for them off season. At my farm in 1 dam i can pull out a good 1000 yabbies in one day but i put them back to keep breeding. Thought ill start selling them and supplying them to tackle shops.
Question is would anyone be interested in buying them regularly? Cheers

If it was convenient to pick em up i'd be interested from time to time. What's your location ?

You could also try the various Facebook pages for a wider audience but (imho) I'm not sure I'd be comfortable having some of those characters knocking on my door.

My farm is bendigo but im in coldstream. I go up every twice a month but if i get orders ill go up every weekend. Ill sell em super cheap due to having thousands

if you grow them big enough it would be more profitable to sell them to asian restaurants.. lol

Would think you may be better off selling them direct to anglers. Tackle stores don't pay much...then they put on their mark up which seems excessive. Of course you said you were going to sell them cheap so this may not bother you. I am sure you would get interest from your local area.
