I'm wanting to find somewhere to get pigs in the 30-40 pound range to feed to a burmese python. I've tried craigslist but haven't had much luck. Do any of you know of anywhere to get them? Thanks.

Have you gone to the green acres flea market. There is a guy there that sells rabbits and chickens he might be able to help you out. I think he's mainly there on sundays.

My parents get pigs from a guy in east knox county area. I can find out about him if you want.

I haven't been to Green Acres Flea Market in a few years. The guy that used to sell rabbits and chickens there died about two years ago and I didn't know anyone else was selling them there. I need to check it out again to see though.

the anti-poon, if you could get some info on him for me I'd appreciate it. Thank you.

mark_amburgey, don't go out of your way but if you happen to go please give them my e-mail address. I'll pm it to you. Thanks.

Anymore comments or advice are appreciated.

I went to Green Acres Flea Market this past weekend to see what they had. They had one rabbit there but they wanted $15 for it so I passed. They had an adult pig there also so I asked if they had any babies available. He said he would in a few weeks but he wanted $60 for them. I did get in touch with someone through Craigslist that said he would supply me with baby goats for $20 a piece which is a great deal. He hasn't e-mailed me back in a few days though so I don't know if he changed his mind or not. If anybody hears about anything please let me know. I'll update this thread if the guy comes through with the goats.

There's Monster Cages.. but for the size you're after, it might be too expensive to consider.

I checked that a while back. They want $2.50 per pound plus shipping which is a rediculous price. Thanks though.
