Snakeman, I will try to remember to take pics but normally I am to scatter brained to focus on taking pics. I tend to never even remember my camera :hmm:

Loucifer,I figured It was something like that.

Next time I visit the states (hopefully in the next couple of years) I do plan on timing it with a show in a place where we will go, I just have to make sure my Mrs doesn't find out until we are there ;)

We were there for about 90 mins. They opened the doors 30 mins. early. Picked up 41 weaned rats for $40! Crowd was getting BIG, so we left early. I'm getting to old for crowds. XD

I thought about going but went last year and was disappointed. Were there good setups and deals this year? Last year it was a bit boring, it seemed like everyone was selling the same thing. I did get some deals on lights though so it wasn't a total washout.

It was pretty lame last year when I went also. This time it was much better :) There was a wider variety of critters and most of them looked like they where in good shape, last time I saw a bunch that looked ill. I did see a bunch of good deals however I didn't need the stuff. I found hides for 1/2 the price I have seen else where. I also found a few vivs 3ft x18"x2ft for $50 nice looking and new. Snakes where average price range but geckos and some of the lizards where much cheaper than normal.

I was going to post pics of my 2 new girls but I got really busy and I don't want to mess with them now. I just got them set up in a 10 gallon tank with a bunch to hide in/on 2 food dishes and 2 water stations. I will take pics in a day or so when they are out and about. I have 1 dark colored garg with stripes but no tail, She was free :) I also picked out a lighter color female with stripes and a full tail, got her for 1/2 price. I couldn't say no! I do have a bit of research to do on them although I have looked into them before so I am not clueless. I have them in a 10 gallon for now while they are little ( 2" each) Although I do have a 30 gallon that they can have when they get a bit bigger.

Right on! Perhaps we can all do the meet & greet at the next one?! Unfortunately, I knew we were going to be in a hurry. Had to pick up my son.

Wifey did a really good job around the BIG snakes, today! She's still a bit nervous. But she held our BP for a minute or two this afternoon! Baby steps!

As far as I know, yes.

Yes the next one is also in Manchester at the Radisson. From a few people that I spoke to the one in March will be even better. I know of several breeders and venders that will have a larger variety of stuff at the march show.

I am all for meeting up with anyone at the expo's. :)
