Sacramento Expo + Pickups (**DUW**)

Went to my first expo yesterday! :P Had the time of my life. I normally hate shopping, but this was super fun and I found myself a couple of amazing additions. :banana:

Here we go. Prepare to be amazed! :D

I am ashamed to say that, since I was primarily shopping for a boa, I didn't get as many BP shots as I'd have liked, but I got the highlights. (Super spinner, extreme high white bee, etc.)

Okay, and here are my pickups. :D

That looks to be a "wall". A cross between a woma python and a ball python.

Neat!!!

Great pics:) Cant beat window shopping at an Expo of reptiles!

Aw, now I kinda wish I had gone! But between the weather forecast of 104 in Sac (:O), and the fact that I'm pretty much broke for the moment... well, those factors made the 3-hour (round-trip) drive less appealing. Great pictures and nice pickups - love that boa!

It was a fun show! I went Sunday. There were alot of pretty boas there, I was almost tempted to pick one up!

Nice photos and pickup!

I was surprised that it wasn't hot at all in the convention center. With all the people in there, heaters for the snakes, I don't think it got above 85*. Outside, I didn't think it was too hot, but I've lived in the valley all my life, 100*+ days just feel like another day!
