Just came back from the Columbus, OH reptile show

[Kettennatter]

Just came back from the reptile show in Columbus. The family and I went to get a female companion for our Red Spotted Oregon Garter Snake.

- We were successful finding that female. The same vendor brought plenty of female Red Spotted Oregon Garters this time. We picked one up, younger and slightly smaller than our male. I guess I will chop up some pinkies. (Right now she is zooming around the enclosure, and he is watching and following her.) The vendor also had a couple of nice Infernalis and Pickeringii, but that's maybe for another time.

- We got some frozen rats, but I guess we were too late for the pinkies. Even my local vendor who also comes to the show didn't have any. I'm not quite out yet, but they are hard to come by at a decent price.

- Browsing around, we also picked up an Everglade Rat Snake for next to nothing, and my son wanted a young Anery Motley Corn.

Of course I also ran into my neighbor two doors down, who just bought a Florida King Snake. It surprised me a little bit, he seems to be more into Hognoses. (It's overall rather amazing how many people I recognized even just my second time at the show.) I was also pleased to see a few more smaller vendors who seemed to specialize in particular snakes, but otherwise no real surprises.

(Sorry, no pictures; as usual I had my hands full with kids, snakes and rodents.)
