So this is a little late but me and my husband went to Arlington Texas this past weekend to the NARBC Expo (NARBC North American Reptile Breeders Conference (http://www.narbc.com/)) and got some good pictures of the various reptiles that were shown and for sale. I didn't have the foresight to keep names and morphs of everything so if you know what they are please let me know so I can mark them.

This will also probably take more than one post to get all of them in. So wait until I am done please. And thanks :)

Hey it was a pleasure just looking at the pictures! This part of Canada we don't have huge expos, just a small one once a year (20 vendors), but its great.

We got a small one like that coming in March to Arlington. May or may not get pictures. Depends on if I go or not. Unlike my hubby I enjoy going to all of the expos that come within a 2 hour drive of us. It is a treat for me.

I think these are Reverse Okeetees...

This could also be an Ivory.. not too sure, there's a good number of white/creamish colored ball python morphs



http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/264/expo6.png

Definitely a Piebald Ball



http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/8048/expo27.png

Blue Eyed Leucisitic Ball

We had talked to the breeder about getting clearer shots of those frogs in their display tanks. Next thing we knew he was making a 3 level frog tower. He was a fun and nice guy.

It would be FUN fun! We ought to do some serious planning about this.

Jendee
02-27-11, 06:14 PM
yes!! we should start with the t-shirts :) we can get the t-shirts designed and made. Sell them to the forum, covering the cost of the t-shirts then all profit goes to the forum. So we can rep this forum at our shows :) and have sort of our own "group"
I actually know a designer, my bestie does t-shirts and stuff. She'd get me a good deal!!
As far as the show thats a year away lol so we can plan when it gets closer (for the texas show at least) Im willing to travel if anybody has any info for bigger shows and wanna met up :)

Let me know what the prices are and everything. We can work on a cool design. Maybe we can chat to infernalis and see what he thinks about the shirts :)

Maybe one day you will be able to Freebody. I mean anything is possible :) I know I never thought I would be able to go, afford to go, or be anywhere near one even if I did go.

one day my friend , one day :) the shows we have here are all snakes under the max of 9feet by law :(

NennaMeerkat
02-28-11, 12:24 AM
Who needs big snakes to make an awesome expo? Some of my favorite species are well under 9 feet at full grown size! Bet you would enjoy it no matter how big all the snakes shown there are :) And since most of the time babies are sold, every baby snake is adorable as all heck.

02-28-11, 08:02 PM
for part of the design you could try talking infernalis into sending a pic of chompers to use for it and various other snakes and lizards and such

i go to the snake show we have here, and they are great shows, I feel like a fat kid in a candy store :P Its just my fav snake is the retic, and its sad we cant buy them or breed them here anymore. it would be a dream to go and see first hand, snakes like jenns, super tiger and high white albinos, as well as a list of other favs i have first hand. but maybe thats a good thing because i would not be able to help myself, soon i would be sleeping in the back yard to make more room availible for my collection LOL
