    NARBC+ unexpected stowaway
    Went to the NARBC show in arlington, tx today... went in looking for a fire but didn't leave with one. Now, normally I'm not a huge fan of spiders, but I saw this girl and HAD to have her, especially for the killer price. Lucky for me she was hiding under the stack of other containers so no one else saw her but nosy me :). she's got some shed on her head still but we'll fix that later.

    figured i'd take some pics before i can't play with her for a week :(. they don't do her justice... she's almost green on her back

    I was just there too! Got me a big fat 1700g female to breed with my bee next season if he gets up to weight. (I hope he will, he's pounding anything in front of him and is 250g @ barely six months)


    Great pickups!

    I just got back! Got a brazilian rainbow boa from brian hummel.. She is absolutely gorgeous and I can't wait to watch her grow up!!

    I saw that spider underneath the other containers! Wasn't looking to get a bp though, I'm glad she went to a good home!

    The only way I way I can do it is by just bringing enough cash for one! I needed a breeding size normal female...ended up with a big ole' het. albino for $75 :) The teenage girl doing the sales thought she was a just one of the other normals, but the breeder told me otherwise. I really lucked out. Can't wait to prove her out. She's pretty bright for an adult. Brighter than any of the other normals or hets I saw today. :) If anything, she will make some nice pastels.

    I'm glad everyone had as much fun as I did! It was my first show since I was a kid. It felt like a ball python convention! (thats what I was hoping for)
