How Do You Build A Flea Circus?
In a flea circus, trained fleas attached to wire harnesses are trained to perform acts like pulling a chariot, walking a high wire, trapeze acts and other stunts. A flea circus is an unusual business idea to show at fairs and parties. To get started, you first need to build a flea circus. Buy plans with DVD or video instruction from sites like Walt Noon’s Flea Circus. You can also get the classic “The Famous Flea Act” which gives directions on building and running a circus. Purchase a pre-made flea circus from artists like Hakan Varol, Svensons Flea Circuses, or Your Flea Circus, where you can also get books, music and boxes of “fleas.” Obtain colored and gold wire in small gauges from hobby and jewelry stores to use as harnesses. Get large magnifying glasses, particularly Fresnel lenses, from science supply stores or stores that offer magnifying glasses for people with vision problems. Add other props from toy, model and model train shops in smallest gauges.
