    Reptile Shows

    I have seen many people posted repitle show pictures. I have never been to one. I really want to go for my first visit. I am new to BP, and I really want to see those snakes before I buy them online, so I know how they really look in real.

    Which one I should go? There are many of them list on the website, but I would like to choose a big one to go to. Any idea?

    And also, can anyone tell me all of the big ones around the year? I am so excited about that.

    Thanks guys

    P.S I know here is for picture post. The reason I post here, is because I have seen many pictures of the shows here. Sorry.

    It would help if we knew where you are located.

    The NARBC Tinley shows are the biggest I've been to.

    We can't really help you pick a show if we don't know your area. The biggest shows would be the shows held by NARBC http://www.narbc.com/ Held in TX, IL, and CA.

    Smaller area shows are perfectly fine as well. Even the Iowa show has a decent selection.

    Location definitely helps xD I'm out here in what seems like one of the boonies of the herp hobby, but the two shows that happen in a relatively local area (Seattle is about an hour and a half drive from here, not too far but not "local" in the strictest sense xD) have always had good selection, and it's a great way to find local breeders and herp societies!

    We have a Repticon show here next week. How are those? I just adopted a Normal BP a couple of months ago and now I got the bug and want another. Was into snakes when I was a kid a long time ago.

    I went to the New Orleans and Baton Rouge shows last year and they were both Repticon shows. They were nice and we had a blast. I would really go to any reptile show in my area.
