it varies from year to year. Last year 50% local newspapers (I run adds in papers from 100 miles north to 100 miles south). about 40% word of mouth or repeat customers and the remaining 10% online classifieds. Me personally I prefer to sale locally that way any questions are usually handled by phone calls or in person quickly and effectively. Email has it's place but in my opinion when dealing with a live animal talking either in person or on the phone is much better for all parties. I also sold every snake I produced this year except a couple holdbacks for at or really near market price, THERE IS NO NEED TO UNDERCUT THE COMPETITION, JUST PROVIDE BETTER QUALITY ANIMALS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE AND YOUR ANIMALS WILL SALE PERFECTLY EASY. We are a very small breeder but we built our breeding stock up on the best of the best and our babies show that, do the same and you will be set.
