Its just weeks away and I can' t wait to finally see the best USA reptile show ever.
That' s right Daytona 2005 :greenflam
DAYTONA LINK (http://www.reptilebreedersexpo.com/)
So who is all going from Canada and around the USA?
3 years I have waited and wanted to attend now I can and all I can saw is its been worth the wait, saved up alot for the show and can' t wait to meet many friends, and breeders who I have enjoyed hearing about and chatting with. To bad I can' t bring every animal I am interested in but the 13 reserved and possibly 8 others that I am thinking on will all be coming back. The bank and Visa are going to love me...lol.
Hope to see you all there that are going ;)

Adam.......already ahead of you on that. Camera ready, almost 8 memory cards and buckets of batteries. Aside from a small vacation there before the show I will still have 4 cards for the show that means over 600 plus photos - gotta love digital. I just need a better lens added to camera to have the choice for better macro I think.

Laura and I blew all our cash on stupid snakes............... :) so we can't go to Daytona to look at snakes we can't buy. Next year we will miss it too because I will be in the process of moving. Well here's to hoping for 2007 :D
That really sucks. I can't wait to see your pictures and hear all the stories.

O.K. everyone... I generally have a sSnakeSs member "giveaway" for those here who come and visit me at Daytona.
Would you guys be willing to participate again this year??
Nothing much of course, a baby corn or king or maybe a pair, but it's really just to get to meet each other etc...You know.
Anyway, look for it in the next few days- if I get a few responses here.
Thanks

SCReptiles:
Nice photo of the show, that is what I will be doing then in the masses hope I can get display shots and personal 1 on 1 photos with people I recongnize and names I have wanted to meet in so many years. Just image same photo but a guy running around getting each photo I can like a kid in a candy store. These shows are a huge thing for me as it is the only time I am in the middle of people that share the same love for reptiles. And all the boid display will have their biggest fan ever there......me!

Hmmm a Pied would be great, joking.
Actually I will be just happy to attend and get the animals I already reserved and a few that just might bust the wallet :)

My wife and I will be there, Sunday. We get to cheat though. We live in Deltona which is just south of Daytona. We even made it last year after the hurricanes, even if it was only for 20 min to buy some het albino boas.
We would go both days but we have family obligations we can't get out of without a shotgun and no witnesses.
I wish, I don't have the money to go but even if I could I wouldnt' buy anything. You have to have CITES to export from the US back home and to get those you need to apply like 6 months in advance and who knows what they are getting from an expo 6 months before hand?? Any one with experience doing this got any advice on how it is done? I would love to make it next year but if I can't buy anything it would kill me to go!! :rolleyes:

I'll be there for sure, particularly Saturday.
Hope to see a few of you there.
YD: The snake eating the corn is a coral; Eastern maybe?
