BioPod pre-owned sales

This page is here to serve anyone who wants to sell their used BioPod. If you wish to sell yours please post about it as a comment for this page. I don’t recommend posting your email address in a comment because of spambots. If you’re a buyer and would like to contact a seller I’m willing to serve as an intermediary. Just contact me and I will pass your request on to the owner. This service is free and pricing, shipping, etc are all up to the buyers and sellers, I’m just providing the advertising. I’ll even allow people who didn’t purchase their BioPod from me to use this page, I’m nice like that. :)

Sellers should describe the condition of their units as thoroughly as possible and photos would be very helpful.

You probably need to scroll way down to find the comment box.

For shipping I recommend USPS Parcel Post. It’s not the fastest but it’s the cheapest I know off. You’ll need a box that doesn’t exceed 24 X 24 X 18 inches which is the largest the Post Office will handle (check to be sure).

Available units – see full descriptions at bottom of page

None at this time.

    I’m thinking I should sell my BSF Biopod since it seems that my climate here (central Wisconsin) is just a bit too cold for them. I like the idea, and my chickens were just getting big enough to like the larvae when the weather chilled out enough to more or less stop production. I’ve only used it one Summer, so there’s no real wear and tear on it. I’d like to get $125 plus shipping.

    Hi Harmon,
    I’m interested in buying your Biopod, but I live in Europe. If you’re prepared to ship it here, and assuming it’s not insanely expensive to do so, I’d be keen.

    Let me know if you’re interested.
    Cheers, Alan

    Sorry, Alan, but I don’t think I want to try to ship to Europe — used insect breeders are likely to cause all sorts of hassles with customs.

    I’ve decided NOT to sell my Biopod. My wife and I just read an article on them in the Backyard Poultry magazine, and it convinced us that we needed to give ours another try, with a little more attention paid to management and hopefully next Summer will be warmer again.

    Harmon I’m glad you’re going to give it another shot next summer. Please contact me when the days start getting into the 70’s and I’ll be glad to advise you.

    Hi Tom,

    Clearly you would have an easier time if you a little further south. While I’ve seen photos of BSF from central Illinois and heard of populations in Idaho and Washington state I can’t say for sure that they are found in your area. Of course it’s still possible to culture BSF where they aren’t already present, but it’s more difficult.

    I sell BSF starter kits which should be available in late April or May. With a short summer you would need to begin as early as possible.

    Hello Folks, I live in east TN and we are interested in a used BSF biopod. I assume they will do well here – right? thanks.

    Hi Dave,

    I’ve heard of wild BSF populations in TN and also KY so you should have a relatively easy time attracting and raising them. Good luck!
