Thumbs up Hamburg Pick-up, new retic!

Just got back from the Hamburg Reptile Expo in PA, ended up getting a new female adult red tail and a baby male normal retic. Got home and situated and ended up feeding all the snakes- the retic ate right away!

I love normal retics, still the best looking IMO.

Yeah, me neither. I haven't gone to an expo at Hamburg before- only Oaks- but everyone made it seem so much better and bigger but it just turned out to be about the same thing but more crowded! I did get exactly what I went there for though so I can't complain. got there at 8:15 and there was still a huge line!

Usually there's more of a selection than today. It's such a small venue for the large amount of people. It's so hard to see everything because there are so many people and the isles are so small. Good thing Oaks is in 3 weeks

Re: Hamburg Pick-up, new retic!

I was disappointed there weren't more tarantulas there..I only saw 2 tables...tons of roaches and crickets though...lots of leopard geckos, too...but it was still worth the drive for us...we got what we went for...

Re: Hamburg Pick-up, new retic!

I sent a friend to get me a Cobra and came back with a beautiful Egyptian Cobra. When I go I go for something specific and I check with the vendors to make sure that what I want is going to be there. I am never disappointed at a Hamburg show. But then again I do my homework before I go or send someone.

Re: Hamburg Pick-up, new retic!

Very nice!! the retic looks gorgeous. The red-tail seems to be pretty small for a red tail, and doesn't seem to have any red-tail looks. But she does look pretty from what i can see

Re: Hamburg Pick-up, new retic!

Beautiful little retic mate, and I'm no boa expert but from the pic that doesn't look like a red tail. But I've been wrong before and I'll be wrong again

Beautiful Retic! Normals are one of the nicest types of Retics IMO! So vibrant.
