    Reptile Shows?
    Hey everyone,

    I thought this might be the best place to post this - I really want to go to a reptile expo for the first time. The only one I've found out about is the Doncaster one, but I was wondering if anybody could tell me about any others here in the UK?
    I live in South Wales, so Doncaster would be a 4 hour drive for me. I wouldn't mind going, but I just want to see what else is about. I've been trying to look on Google, but haven't found anything.
    Is the Doncaster expo the 'main', and most popular reptile event here in the UK?

    Also, apart from having a great day out, I am considering having another snake - if I got one at the show, would it be alright for a four hour drive back? I mean, luckily the weather isn't too extreme here in the UK, but I am thinking of going to the one on 23rd June, so it will be hotter then..
    I have a ball python and a boa at present, and I'm considering what snake I would like to get - truth is, I would LOVE a burmese :)
    Thanks for any info.

    Gorgeous snakes, thanks for linking me. Had I known about that show in time, I would have probably gone (I'm really eager to go!) but alas, I found out a day too late. Have you ever been there, or to any other show?

    Unfortunately the only shows on in uk are Doncaster the next one is in June if you look on the ihs website at breeders meetings and you can find out exact date it is worth the trip people come from all over I recommend start saving up now then when you go make it worth your while and come back with a couple ;)
