*fairly urgent* borrow bugs for a while... please!

Hi, I procrastinated on this. Not sure whether it's a request or an offer.

I'm going to college in norcal and the bug tolerance is iffy; I don't meet my roommate until getting up there. So my parents and I are going to bring the bugs up, and if it doesn't work out, they'll bring them back down here.

IF that happens, I'll need someone to take the bugs for, probably, the school year. (I'll have different roommates each year, so this has to be done on a year-to-year basis :/) If one person could take all of them, that would be preferable, but if you can take half or a third, definitely let me know too. You'd get them from my parents some time after the 21st.

Pros for you:
-get cool bugs for a while
-I'm not making any demands about minimum care or complaints about deaths
-depending on what's left, you can definitely keep something(s) afterwards

Cons for you:
-you might find some of the bugs boring
-I can't pay (money) for the maintenance

There is also a leopard gecko and ball python, which I definitely can't take. The leo is skinny, but because I've been slacking on feeding, not because she's sick. The BP is in a tank that's probably considered inadequate, but he seems to be doing very well. I have several months worth of rats for him. I'm expecting to have these separate from the bugs (but if someone can take all of them that would be AWESOME)

Thanks for at least reading this far

I can handle the reptiles for you.
Im at my bug sitting limit at the moment.
delikorkmaz

I've absolutely reached my T limit for now...in other words, still looking for someone to mind the a.reversum for you?
Pulk

Update: I can keep the arthropods.  Very Happy  Very Happy

(However: I still don't have a home for the snake and gecko.)

Thanks for offering, balam and roaddog!
Emo Cinderella Boi

i can take care of the gecko if you want Smile
Celeste

Warren said he could handle the reptiles.
Pulk

Sorry, I should have been explicit about the location... my parents *probably* won't drive up to the LA area. =/

I REALLY appreciate the offers from the LA people though!
rosenkrieger

I might be able to take the BP and Leo. I visit my dad down in Carlsbad every few weeks. I might even be going down there this sunday. Whenever you need to move them, just let me know. I can make a trip down there.
MUD

I know you are getting a lot of offers for the geckos and bp but i have both and they can live with mine. I also do love road trips. Just let me know.
Pulk

*Excellent*, rosenkrieger/MUD! Does either of you actually want to take care of them, or especially not want to?
MUD

Yes I do want to take care of them. My geckos egg just hatched a week ago and it is really awsome. They are extremely tiny. And it looks really cool. And as for the ball python I got home at 6 and just put it away 10 minutes ago. I would be happy to watch these guys for you. As for the rats you have are they frozen or alive?
Pulk

The rats are frozen... I don't remember exactly how many I have, but I'm pretty sure they'll last for a significant majority of the period.

When is the soonest you could take a trip down to the SD area? I'll see if I can get my parents to dump some crickets in the gecko tank to tide her over.
MUD

Well I was waiting for someone to tell me I can go get their T's (two roseys) but they never called me or emailed me back so I can go right now if that's ok? Me and my girlfriend are ready to go on a trip I was supposed to get Ts in mission viejo but I guess sd isn't much farther away Smile
Pulk

Heh, sorry, my parents aren't going to be back for a few days. Can you pm me the days you can come down?
rosenkrieger

If MUD can't take them, let me know, I can probably make a run down there just about anytime I have a couple days off.
