Multiple snakes collection. What would you do?

I have a nice collection of 16 snakes that I use for a show that I do locally. It’s called “Not Furry Friends”. Instagram link included. Hope it works.

I am close to retiring from my career as a graphic designer and may have to sell my house. I LOVE sharing my snakes with people. It is very rewarding. But I am also considering selling my entire snake collection. I would like to keep a few of my favorites. I may even donate my collection to somebody who wants to keep the show going, but I need to be convinced that you are worthy!
Should I advertise my entire collection with one price for all, or list then separately? I also have awesome custom built enclosures for them too. How best to sell them? Please visit my “Not Furry Friends” Instagram page to see my collection and what I do. Any advice would be welcome. Thank you. Wayne

Is there anyone else relatively close to you who does similar programmes? They might be interested in expanding and be willing to take over the whole thing, animals, equipment, client list, brand, social media, the whole lot. If you end up moving on the animals piecemeal, and have enclosures left over, there might be a reptile rescue near you who would appreciate the equipment, or a store who could use or sell on them.

After you decide which ones you want to keep why don’t you consider gifting a few to friends who may want a snake. That way you can stay in touch with them. Then hopefully you won’t have too many to deal with.

Thanks for the ideas. There is another local reptile show who may be interested.

I have gifted snakes in the past to people who show interest at my shows. I’m always open to that. Thank you for the ideas.
