I know sometimes I breed sylesti I dislike and I'm like many people on here, I want gold, but selling on the forums isn't a guarantee that someone will buy your pets. What if there were NPCs in the world map areas that would buy them, not for a lot of gold, maybe 1500 gold at most? The,ed could go for more but it also would go according to level? So for example level 0s couldn't be sold in Umbra Forest, they'd have to be sold in Viridian Meadows. But a level 60 could be sold in both Umbra and Viridian.
There could be a cooldown, say like 2 days, before you could sell a pet again. There could be age limits and you could only sell like 2 or 3 at a time. It'd also be cool if you could only sell tamed sylesti, the forums could be used for both but the noc could be exclusively for tamed
I dunno, I just think it'd be cool

Support, but there should probably be a restriction like the 42+ day releasing one, or people will just breed pets with others and farm a bunch of gold.

Perhaps have an age restriction for the pet and/or a level restriction. If the payout was small then it would be less tempting to farmers.

like um, it would have to be over 25 days and if it was level zero and had no traits it would be like 500 gold? and if it were to be a level 60 with no traits it could be like 800 gold?

this is a super cool idea, possibly they need to be an aduly and you can only sell a pet every so many days?

this is a super cool idea, possibly they need to be an adult and you can only sell a pet every so many days? and based on gene they can sell for more? so a no vis no carried pet might be 100 but a 6vis might be upward to the 1500 cap? or whatever it is

Yeah a limit on the amount you can sell at a time and age would make sense. It could also have a cooldown, maybe it could be only for tamed sylesti? To prevent traits that would pay more from being bred and sold?

Good idea, but the logistics are a bit tricky. Take a look at these ideas..
1. You have to figure out a cost for each species and each trait and each theme, as all of them are different prices because of their rarity. If, on the Ny'vene, Quad Arms was a very rare trait then the NPC would pay an extra amount of money, but then people would start breeding Quad Arms and farming lots of gold from the NPC. Therefore, the NPC would have to look at how many Ny'venes have an M1 mutation, and then how many of those have Quad arms to figure out the cost.
2. You can't really have a day cap, because people would either sell their pets to get some space (everyone goes through that time at the beginning, when you have 500g and no stable space) or to get some much-needed gold. Therefore, the NPC could take a look at your stables and money. Maybe you could only sell if you had less than 1 tab free, or if you had less than the higher average of people in your level group.
3. You wouldn't be able to only sell tamed, unless you were wanting to give a level/account age cap. So maybe only players under level 55 or under a year of playing could be able to use the NPC with tamed, and everyone above would be close or on the Lost Grove so they would catch themed pets, and we all know themed pets go for a LOT more in the Forums.

All species would cost the same, maybe within 100 gold more for fabled and 200 or 300 more for themed.
The cool down on selling could work because it would just prevent you from selling until it ended.
I personally like the idea of only being able to sell tamed sylesti, it prevent gold farming like you mentioned in 1.
