Breedable Markets & Advertising

There are a lot of Farmers Markets on the grid, but many come and go within only a few months, so keeping such a list is difficult at the best of times. Listed below are some of the bigger markets and in-world groups which allow advertising. The list will occasionally be moderated and modified, but we can just about guarentee that one or more of these may well be deadlinks by the time you may read this.

Most of these markets allow for ALL breedables nowadays, with some provisios being put on the mode of live pets, how many can be kept on rental patches, and whether boxed or not. If you are tempted to rent from these marketplaces, always read the covenants for rentals and any rules and regulations firstly.

Advertising Groups in Second Life

Disclaimer and Request

As with everything in Second Life, these Markets appear and disappear regularly. Even in the course of putting this list together we found that some of our own most popular smaller markets which we’d visited less than six weeks ago have disappeared into the pixels of memory. If you spot this with some of the markets listed here, please take the time to contact us so that we can keep this listing updated. Also, if you do have other Farmer’s Markets, please feel free to contact us to tell us about these, or to request amendments to details.
