Visit to Graziani Reptiles (DUW!!!)

Hi all ... we have been really busy lately with everything and have not had much time to post. Anyway we went to Florida for a wedding over the new year, and stopped to visit Greg Graziani yesterday on the way to Tampa. Here are a few pics ....

We saw lots of other cool stuff, and my wife managed to get bit by the Silver Streak :snake: ...... :rolleye2:

Greg was great, and I wish we would have had more time. He gave us a hands on demo on popping and let us hold whatever we wanted. I must say it was great to meet him in person and I hope to do more business with him in the future.

wow great pics and loads of really cool animals

ah... so was that the icing on the trip! :wuv:

Stopping there was definitely the icing, and Dee getting bit was like icing rose on top of everything ....:devil:
kidding :D

ahh man I wish I knew you were coming to town! Where was the wedding? You lucky S.O.B. for going over to graziani's... I've been trying to get in touch with him recently but I just keep getting his voicemail. Anyways, I'll be visiting him myself here as soon as I hear from him. I want to check out his animals, purchase one directly from him and definetly shake his hand for being the man! haha!


Great pictures though! thank you for sharing them! all of those snakes were rediculous!

:rockon:

We were in Cape Coral, but flew in to / out of Tampa. It was a little bit out of the way, but it was worth it. I know he has been busy lately, we happened to catch him when he was home and it worked out. They have a new building up, so he said is going to be really busy soon moving racks/animals. We were running so late I had to drive like mad to make our flight .... but it is good to be home.

Very nice! I'm jealous of Alyssa with the pinstripe! That's my current next "must have"!

Hey if you're going to get tagged then get tagged by a snake like that! LOL Sounds like a wonderful side trip and some flat out gorgeous snakes to see. Thanks for sharing the pics! :)

Greg is absolutely the best!! ... Alyssa looks like a pro holding the caramel and the pin ... awesome pictures Neil, thanks for sharing!!! :sweeet:

Thanks, Greg was showing us a super cinnamon compared to the silver streak, (which has really darkened up). Alyssa and I were real close, and Dee kept inching closer. The streak did a 180 and nailer her from about 18" away .... I think Greg felt real bad but Dee handled it fine. It maybe 6 months before we get her to hanlde another snake around here though. :rolleye2:
