Ok so when i move out im going to start at spawning, and eventually will be selling the fry on to others

My LFS will be buying most from me, but I will be selling a select few, basically I will be a small time breeder

I had an idea about it tho, and wanted to get some feedback

Basically I would use a courier for the fish to be sent out, but people within a decent radius to me, i could deliver to them?

I have Panniers and a topbox on my motorbike, and heatpacks would be used, just wanted to see what people thought?

yeah i have lol....

If your going to be delivering them on your motorbike, why not pad out the top box to keep them warm wink.gif maybe get a small heater fitted in it to work off the battery, i know it can be done cos my mate had a top box heated to keep his bloody cloths warm in the winter for when he got work rofl..

The heater he got came with a switch and it also had a timer on it, il ask him what it was etc.

To be honest if your delivering locally, if its padded out, you wont really need heatpacks and that...

Just thought if you was going long distance it could of helped smile.gif

Sounds like a great idea Phoenix, you could just pack the fish into a box with heat pack like you would for posting if you were going quite a distance?? Or ar least just put some polystyrene in a box to keep the heat in?
