Snake shows

[JeffD]

I think it would be great to have "snake shows". We aleady have snake selling shows. What do you ya' ll think about having a judging show at the selling shows already in place nation wide? It is already done with dogs, horses etc.

Someone brought this idea up in another thread.. Can't remember who though.. But it's a good idea, but one I think the community would definitley have to put a lot of work in on their own.

how do you judge a snake?

[Stewart_Reptiles]

Snakes and Dogs are very different, I don't see why anyone would subject their prize snake (and likely breeder) through the stress of this type of event and for what

Also how would you go about judging a snake??? Again the way dogs are being judge cannot be apply to snakes.

I've thought about this and mentioned it it a few posts. I do see problems with "showing" snakes.
1) how do you prove genetics?
2) who would set standards?

As far as who would subject their snakes to judging, I don't see that as a big problem. Just have them in a display case with an information card. Maybe comparing it to rabbits and chickens is better than dogs and cats. But the genetics part is still tough. What would keep someone from entering a "bumble bee" and it's a fire bumble bee. But problems aside, I would love to go to a show and see tons of top of the line snakes on display!
