| 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. | |

| 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. | |
