Free baby yabbies

Post by trout-hunter » Thu Jan 14, 2021 2:51 pm

Hey everyone,
I got lazy and didn't make the room for a new batch of yabbies in time, so now im stuck with a small pond with about 500+ little yabbies and a few bigger breeders, within a month the pond will be well over crowded and they will kill each other so the little guys have got to go! Im not a licensed dealer so i cant sell them.. good bait size in a month or 2..
I can hold onto them for a week or so, no rush when to get them,

Txt dave on 0401294551 (dont call because my phone speaker is stuffed..)

Pick up from coldstream
Cheers

Hey mate, I've got a 28L fish tank and another one only 10L. Would I be able to pick up a few and keep them for a couple of months? I've never kept yabbies before but would like to use some for chasing big reddies. I'm working out your way tomorrow so might shoot you a text in the arvo if you're free.

Hey Dave,

How do these guys keep in a fish tank with fish ect? I've never kept them before but my brother and a mate has a couple of tanks.

Yabbies are fine with fish, i keep a few big fellas in with my goldfish and catfish and never had any problems. If anything being cleaners they do more good than harm.

Will send you SMS tomorrow

Fresh water fishers stock up while they last I have no point for them I mainly fish salt but they would be good bait for a cod
