    I go once every couple of months. It's a small show, probably 15 or so vendors, majority being Ball Pythons. The rest is a mix of colubrids, boas, and a few larger snake species here and there. I've never been to Hamburg, but I doubt the MD show is better from what I've heard. Like I said, very small show but there are usually a couple really cool snakes there. A few of the tables always have a nice variety.

    Any specific questions?

    Small but good show if you're not looking for the big bucks reptiles. Plenty of Ball Python variety, with a good amount of boas and colubrids, as well as your standard lizards (geckos, beardies, chameleons, etc.). I've been seeing more and more Retics/Burms over the years, and last time I went there was a vendor selling a few Anacondas. It's a great "starters" show, I go once or twice a year to restock on F/T rats and aspen (saves money to buy in bulk, haha) and I always see something that makes me go "ooh I want that!!" :D

    I agree with Fenrir a lot! I think it's a good starter show and everyone is very nice. However, I do think that it is small, so I find Hamburg better in regards to variety. It is an excellent place to stock up on feeders as stated above too.
