Get them home, get them clean. Explain why everything happens.
“This bath is to get rid of the bitey monsters and make you smell pretty.”
“This litter box is for good poopies. Fluffies who make good poopies get good homes.” Make sure the litter is compostable.
“This pill is to get wormy monsters out of your poopie place.”
NO FLUFF TV.
Webcam or phone video of the chirpies. Start a channel, make a vlog, work towards getting partner status to get ad revenue. Sign up for affiliate program with online stores so when you add links in the description below.
Do @Thk 's idea but add tomatoes too.
Do light yardwork for family or others, start compost pile. Plan to sell compost to neighborhood gardeners, at farmers markets, etc.

Oh, and find freelance, work from home gigs. That$150 won’t last long and every stay at home breeder has one in the stories. Better to have a little insurance, you know?

Give them table scraps bc it’s cheap and free. They won’t care much. Any dead foals you can sell as preserved oddities or bones for collectors

I think this IS our attempt at a freelance work-from-home gig. If we could get another one, why even bother with the fluffies?

The only one vlog-able might be the stallion, actually. The mare is … the opposite of a looker and seems too meek to do good on camera anyway, and the babies are common-looking enough that they wouldn’t stick out against the massive amounts of other foal videos. Stallion’s smart though. A vlog series about him and his ugly-but-beloved family as they get used to their new home might work.

Not the BEST starting pair, but it’s the one we have. First step is to get them home, get them clean, and lay down the rules.
Clean everyone and check throughly for any wounds or damage, especially the foals.
Then explain that your job is to find “bestest housies” for good babies. Tell them that good babies get to go to housies where they will have huggies, love, and sketti.
Then, you need to socialize them. The babies need to be raised to love people, playing, huggies, and all of the things a potential buyer will want in a fluffy. You don’t have premium colors, so their temperament will be a huge selling point for you.

Clean them via washing (slowly, with warm, soapy, shallow water, one at the time) and also deworm them. Set them up in the saferoom and give them attention and a good life, this will be important for later.
In the meanwhile, start visiting shelters to makes friends with the employees. Getting insider information on new arrivals is key. Rarity, type, personally, background are all vital information and can help you dodge bullets.
After a few days to a week, bring the stallion with you when checking for ferals. He can give testament to your proper treatment AND it let’s you check early on if there will be any conflict between fluffies and such. There is also the possibility of finding a mare with children that lost there special friend and having the stallion there offering to help can go far.

I’d think its more about building a brand.
Presumably Fluffy breeders are common, and the world has enough Fluffy saturation to find them on the streets.
If people can check how they were reared before purchase it makes you stand out and seem more reliable.
Like Edwardian and Victorian fancy rat breeders when rats roamed the streets. The only way to profit is reach moderate celebrity status. Having a meme made of your Fluffies become popular, or get some shoutouts from e-celebs or something is the goal. Get invited as a regular on a podcast or something.

OH OH!!! With the fluffies you take in make sure you get their “story”. You can craft a narrative that clients can connect with when it comes time to sell the foals or even if someone makes a good offer on the parents.
If the breeder is tech-savvy you can make up a mini-blog for each of the fluffies for people follow. Build a fanbase to get a waiting list going to sell at a premium.

Gotta hustle multiple revenue streams until one takes off. Its like a business owner is, until they hit a certain point, their own HR, accountant, billing/recievables, etc. Chances are they never signed up for ALL the extra roles, but its necessary to make things work. Including, sometimes, taking on other jobs to get bills paid.
Gigs might not be long term. Single jobs, one-offs, contract work, etc. But the big thing is getting money in the bank for the inevitable problems.

OH!!! Ideas keep rolling in to build on the previous ones. Having a webpage for each of the fluffies let’s you have an all important DONATE button. Can also look into streaming your interactions with the fluffies you bring in and their journey of learning and adjusting.

Yeah. The protagonist needs income and things to do. The fluffies need human interaction but also need to be trained on not bothering their owners, that they’re not the center of th world, etc.

Take them home give them a warm comfortable bath so that way they know you don’t mean harm. Don’t worry about sketti since they’re ferals they’ll take anything. When washing them clean the adults first so they know it’s safe then let them watch you clean the foals right now it’s all about trust
