Spoils from Taras :D

[Leviathan]

So this is the loot I brought back! As you can tell I had a great weekend. Thanks a million to Henry for buying my cresteds for his daughter so I could get my beautiful Somali Uro, Azure!!! Oh and here he is...

Then we picked up a pair of Jungle Carpet Pythons. Very nice looking!

Sorry if some of the pics didn't turn out. I'll post better ones once they've settled in. :) Hope you enjoyed!

Alecia

The columbian Tegu is now Raz, the Jcp's are Lady Deathstrike and Wolverine!

[ChokeOnSmoke]

nice additions
very nice jcp

[gonesnakee]

Looks like I provided some spending money eh LOL Glad you had fun & THX again for the Womas. Mark

[Katt]

The one I'm most jealous of is the pac man.

[Leviathan]

That's the truth Mark, for sure :D Now I just have to sell the other pair before the next show so I can buy more Hogs from Dan, lol.

It is a pretty sweet Pacman! Yellow, Orange, Red and Green!
By the way it was great meeting you guys!!! Mark is hilarious and has a great sense of home decor ;) and Katt is proof that there are cool girls in this world! (Other examples: Jen, Leah and Annette!)

Alecia

[Katt]

OOoh!! hehehe, I'm not cool. I still cluck like a chicken in restuarants (Invictus can testify to this.)

Thanks anyway! I'm blushing!!

[Derrick]

nice JCPs where are they from and how old?

[Leviathan]

They're from Gord Redman and I'm not sure how old they are. I'd have to ask my hubby but I would guess around 5 months.

Alecia

[Leviathan]

Oh and by the way Katt, I've screamed at voices in my head in an elevator full of people! (not real voices just to clarify, lol) So clucking like a chicken in a restaurant is my kinda fun ;)

[Oliverian]

Very cool :D. The show was great! Glad I got to meet a lot of you, especially Vanan. You guys are awesome. Hope to make it up for the fall show as well!

...That is, if I'm allowed. Wasn't supposed to bring anything home at all, and I got a pair of central americans, a baby corn, couple of emperor scorps, longtailed grass lizards, and more. :D

Was tres worth it though!

Take care.

[Clownfishie]

*Drools*... Wow Alecia, they all look amazing! The Uro is SOOO handsome :D JCPs look like they've got great colour, and the Hogs are gorgeous (you're still sending one to me, right? ;))... actually, while you're at it, you can send me that cal king & the bp too :D

But, since I know you're not going to... Have I mentioned lately that I hate you? :p LOL...

Just kidding... they all look amazing Alecia, congrats!!


Jen

[Vanan]

Nice acquisitions y'all!

Tammy, it was great meeting you too! Hope you're enjoying Mr. Nosey! ;)

Couldn't disturb most of what I brought back as they're more sensitive. Giving them time to chill. Here's some pics of a couple of my "spoils" which were more "willing".

<img src=http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/v167/Vanan/Frogs/spadefoot1.jpg>

Great Basin Spadefoot. Finally able to legally keep these. They're considered wildlife in BC and, as such, are illegal to own.

Here's a not too commonly seen skink. At least this species.

<img src=http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/v167/Vanan/Lizards/scincella1a.jpg>

Scincella reevesii, was being sold as Southern Skinks.

<img src=http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/v167/Vanan/Lizards/scincella1b.jpg>

Same male as above.

<img src=http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/v167/Vanan/Lizards/scincella2a.jpg>

Gravid female. These guys are probably egg layers. Like their cousins, S. lateralis.

[Leviathan]

Post some pics for us Tammy... and did i see you? I don't remember :(

[Leviathan]

I need a name for my male Hog if anyone has any suggestions!
Thanx!

[gonesnakee]

Alecia, I think for the male Hogg call him "Boss Hogg" like from the "Dukes of Hazard" LOL You say I'm hilarious. Does that mean like "funny Ha Ha" or otherwise like funny looking or smelling LOL Take some pics that do those herps justice! That Uro looks like crap compared to in person. It must be seen to appreciate its colors! Gords Jungles are way more impressive in person too. Those ones are related to the one I have that looks like a Diamond cross (same clutch or clutches from late Aug/early Sept 03 I think). Was that BP the one from Kyle? Tammy fooled us all with her shorter cropped hair & no glasses, but I still knew it was her by her avatar pic. Much more pretty in person as were all of you other female "specimens" LOL Hope to see everyone again soon & good luck to all with the new "kids". Mark
P.S. Alecia you shouldn't admit to yelling at the voices in your head whether you realize that they are real or not Heh Heh not that I'd recomend the clucking either LOL Ah yes normal is boring!

[Leviathan]

Mark I'll take funny haha and smelly lol. I know they aren't great pics I gotta take more during the day. I took those a like 3 in the morning.

If you have the guts to pull the elevator stunt, I suggest try it once. I did it in Vancouver on one of the busiest elevators coming off the skytrain. The next stop after I got on all but one person rushed out except a man who saw me wink to my friend. hehehe
I probably wouldn't do it now that I'm a proper, sophisticated married woman, (lol) but it was fun once! Although my mom and me still get into fake fights at costco! Ah heck, screw growing up!

Oh and i do like Boss Hog... hmmmm.

[gonesnakee]

I'll admit when ya smell like E.Indigo pee its not everyones cuppatea LOL I don't think you will ever get pics that do that Uro justice though. I'm not a lizard guy but that ones a screamer! Mark

I couldn't figure out who you were until you mentioned the grass lizards; kinda funny near the end of the show we found another pair we forgot to display. We were kicking ourselves for not having them out for you to buy. I'll give Tim crap for not introducing us.

[Leviathan]

Oh and I think the Ball is from Kyle... hat and glasses beside you?

[Oliverian]

Tammy, it was great meeting you too! Hope you're enjoying Mr. Nosey! Yes! He's awesome! Don't know if I told you or not, but had to give him a bath in the hotel because he pooped in the bag. Didn't like the water very much, and decided to soak me and Julie with a wave. :D He's so neat.

My babies are in Saskatchewan! Thanks for posting the pics, it's neat to see them in the care of someone else. Hope they do well for you. Some of mine are approaching 1 1/2 inches. Still eating like pigs. :) Nice skinks too.

Leviathan, post pics of myself or the trip? Or both? :) Dave got some awesome pics of the show, hopefully he'll be able to post them soon. I thought I was introduced to you, but I'm not sure... were you with a tall guy?

Tammy fooled us all with her shorter cropped hair & no glasses, but I still knew it was her by her avatar pic. Much more pretty in person as were all of you other female "specimens"
Aww come on. :) You're making me blush! It was neat to put names to faces. The only one I recognised right away was Ken, spotted him right away in the parking lot. And I realised who Jeff T was as soon as I stopped looking at his geckos and saw the hair. :D

Better keep an eye on her Katt...lol. Lol! Katt just needs to keep more of an eye on those darn kingsnakes!

Argh! I thought I heard someone mention you had more under the table. Darn, those things are neat! They're not very skittish either.

Had so much fun!

[Oliverian]

Julie was telling me how everyone was wondering why I wasn't in the bar. I'm still only 15! Wanted to come down and visit anyways, but decided to hang out with Dave and talk reptiles. :D

-TammyR

[Vanan]

15?! Holy moly!! Dang!

[Leviathan]

Tammy LOL ok it's a good thing I read that again. I thought you said are you a tall guy! Yes, I was with a tall guy... I guess my hubby is tall. Maybe it's cause I'm so short :D

[Oliverian]

Ok, well I saw him for sure. Actually I thought he was Leviathan, but then I saw you were a girl. I think we were quickly introduced before I was dragged away to look at more critters.

Lol Vanan, how old did you think I was? ;) Guess I could have gone to the bar then, eh?

-TammyR

[Vanan]

I'd say you could have. ;)

[Leviathan]

Well everyone got taken to the vet today (that was interesting) and came back with a clean bill of health! Plus they all got some meds for internal and external parasites too! So that's definelty a good thing!!! I love my vet!! I will get more pics up on Monday as i have a big flyball tourney this weekend. My mom dropped my camera when I was over at her place so I'm hoping all is well... hmmm.

Alecia

[gonesnakee]

Alecia, ya the BP was from Kyle.
Tammy only 15! Well you are a very mature young lady thats for sure. If I was "Bouncing" I'd have let you in. Now I know why your Mom is trying to keep a close eye on ya LOL
I agree that Ken (Invictus) & Jeff T. are easily the 2 most identifiable ssnakess members at the show LOL
Mark

[Leviathan]

Ya see, most of the people I saw I didn't realize who they were until after I got home. Although when I was walking around I heard someone say, 'that's Alecia'. I still have no idea who he is. Oh well, I thought it was funny.

Alecia

[Optimus Prime]

Wow Vanan I love that little toad he is very kool!

[Linds]

Wow looks like you really made out at that show! Congrats on all the new little guys. Wish I could see the pacman and uro though!

[Oliverian]

:D Glad to see my little toadies looking neat in Saskcatchewan!

:D
