So I'm going to the White Plains show in 2 weeks... I'm thinking of picking something up. Hopefully some type of Coastal Jag. Anyway, does anybody have and recommendations as to who I should buy from?

Mike Curtin, he is at the White Plains show. Great guy, beautiful carpets. He is definitely the way to go.

I second Hillary's opinion. Mike Curtin produces some amazing animals!

Can't go wrong with Mike Curtin, I picked up my JCP sib from him at the last White Plains show, could not be more pleased with how she is doing.

Great looking snake.
I'm gonna call East Coast Serpents tomorrow and see what they're taking. I'll contact Mike Curtin to and find out what he's bringing. I don't wanna jump into a decision just yet. I'm hoping to maybe even get a pair.

My suggestion, talk to them and also look around. Don't feel rushed to buy it this weekend. If you live in the region, you live around some of the best breeders in the country. People are still hatching out snakes left and right around this time, so your patience may be rewarded by many more options if you take it slow. If you want tigers, talk to Jason Baylin. If you want red coastals and Red coastal jags, talk to Luke Snell-he's out in NJ and has some amazing red coastal jags and red coastals. Mike Curtin as everyone else said is also well respected, and though I've never met him, I've only heard good things. There are plenty of others. Most of these people should be more than happy to talk to you on the phone about it. Don't feel the expo pressure though. If you live in the area most of these guys would be more than happy to make arrangements with you at a later date if you don't find the one you're looking for at the expo.

Best of luck!

I'll be at that show, you can get one of Spot's (my carpet) ancestors or brothers. Spot is a granite carpet python from viking reptilia (they're located right next to bhb). Spot:

I've been going crazy trying to make a decision about what I should get. I've also taking up a new interest in Boa's. I'm def. going to make a big purchase soon. Not sure what it's gonna be yet.
Also, that granite looks amazing.

Skip the boa and get yourself a real snake ;) Once you go carpet, you'll never go back :D
