Reptile Expo on 19th
How was it for you? Did you buy anything?
I was greatly dissapointed! I drove over 8 hrs to have deal fall through, and could not find anything I wanted there!!!! Alot of pushing and shoving though, and that sucks when you are stuck in a car for so long!
Not a whole lot of interesting stuff either looked like alot of leftovers or stuff that wasn't selling in there petstore to me! Interested on how you feel about winter shows, and maybe if they can get a bigger hall?
I arrived at 9:30am and left at 12:30pm.....was there more after? Did I miss something?

Winter expos aren't always the greatest. I was there for like an hour and drove four hours to get there. I only went for frozen rodents and the hopes my man would surprise me by buying me a snake...nope haha
You're right, LOTS of pushing and shoving and there weren't as many vendors as the last few.
You should try the April expo, there won't be any less pushing and shoving though haha But it should be really good!

Thanks will do! I am glad I am not the only one who drove so far for so little. Don't get me wrong the Expo was a sucess, to others. What kind of snakes are you looking for I maybe can help!

Yeah winter shows are lacking products, but its not are fault you drove that far and your deal fell through ( try the boi for that).. And yes it was really busy, which is a good thing because you know the hobby is growing.

That IS the bigger hall... it is literally twice the size of the previous venue, which was larger than the one before that :P It's definitely a lot more spacious than the one before that, if anything it should just go to show how much more the expos have to offer these days, and how many more people they are attracting

I'm all set for snakes, thanks anyways. I have enough connections to most of them. I'm on a breeder's waiting list but I'm not getting another snake until the sept show anyways. I'm hoping the April show may have some nice millipedes for me to take a gander at...

Haha yeah it's in Ontario, Canada. And there's no Bar anymore. I think it was at a Legion before? And anyways there was a bar downstairs, of course you had to be of age to enter. But it was good times.
