Ok, I know its early and most of you are on your way to the show. I am unfortunately stuck working weekends (probably for the rest of my life). Hopefully by the time I get home from work, lots of you will be back from the show and posting.

Just got back from the show, picked up some really nice-looking frozen jumbo rats, as well as a few rat pups.

Nothing really caught my eye, which is good (did not end up spending my grocery money)

[Bartman]

That snake is worth A LOT of money. If it were mine, I wouldn't let my own mother hold it. :)

Suris can range anywhere from $300 - $1500+.

[wyz]

My first time there !

Was dissapointed when I came in, I really expected this place to be huge and have like 100 and more tables :)

After going around a 1st time, the 6 hours trip was worth the while, I liked what i saw.. as they say it's quality that counts, not quantity.

I was there with my girlfriend and 2 friends.

Me and my gf endend up getting a blue panther Nosybe and a pair of Malis for a friend.

you will be pleasantly surprised with it
IN the meantime I will keep you guessing

Jim :)

You like? ;)

[Classic]

Your the best Jim. There arn't to many peeps around that i would give free reign with 5 bucks let alone go to buy me snakes i have not seen myself first. Great job Jim.

Brian

Surprisingly though, that guy looks alot like the one in my freezer.

[Wilma]

Lol... Linds, that is MY amel cornsnake! :P

I picked up a male anery cornsnake, crickets, super worms, bark, and a bearded dragon :P

And way way to much beer! oh... hang overs suck...

And as for that rat pup... feed it human soy formula at double the powder to the same amount of water... if its eyes open then it will start eating solid foods, you can feed it scrambled eggs, veggies, oatmeal, etc. and provide a good quality lab block and remember to have the cage in a warm location. It would survive, I have raised 2 week old rat pups before.

[damzookeeper]

I sold quite a few of my leos and mannaged to pay for my trip, pick up a shirt from Scotty for my daughter, a mug from the turtle rescue, and these two beauties.

My Christmas presant to me. lol. Does anyone recognise these guys? I don't know who they came from,( I was too excited when I found them and it totally slipped my mind to find out who they were from. lol) I know that it was a table behind me, I think maybe Rob was mentioned, but not sure. Thanks anyway, whoever it was. I love them. Now I have the two top cages filled above my leo rack system. lol, I have to use a ladder to get to them though since it is about 6 feet up.

You can see my eastern skink in the bottom cage and the rack is for my adult leos.
