If you know you're not giving your animals the proper care they need, you should seriously consider selling them off or give them to someone who will address their needs. The animals are in your collection not by THEIR choice, but by yours. They are completely dependent upon you for proper care so, IMO, if you cannot provide it, you don't deserve to have them.
We all have times where life events take us away from focusing on our collection as much as we'd like. When it becomes a regular theme or is simply due to lack of interest, then it's time to move on. You really don't have a large collection to care for. If you have a few favorite animals, consider downsizing to just keep them. Maybe the ease of caring for just two to three of them will change your outlook and perspective. If you still can't handle it or could care less, hang it up man! Your animals deserve better than that.
