Reptile Shows

So, I've been wondering..
I haven't been to a Reptile Show in a good while soo.

Does anyone have a list or knows of a list of all the reptile shows that are coming up?

Also, I heard from somewhere you have to be 18 to buy anything from the vendors.. I'm 17 and thats very unfortunate.

Thanks everyone!

Dont know about shows in your area, NARBC Tinley maybe!!!

as far as being 18 to buy, its prolly a good idea but most people I see do not follow that rule.

For example just this weekend, some place was sellin water monitors and a kid just walks up (prolly about 14) and says "ill take it!" The guy hands it to him bada bing bada boom.

Im not sayin a 14 year old couldnt take care of a water monitor, but odds are not in his favor.

Totally understand.
I was just thinking.. should I force my mother into the trunk by means of ropes and chains?
She likes my snakes in MY room.. away from HER. Haha.

I'm sure if anything (similar to other types of shows) I could always ask an 18 year old to buy something for me.

I think the last show I've been to was right on the edge of Chicago. I don't remember what it was called.. it's been so long..

I'd be willing to travel 3 hours or so. ;]

Pick up a reptiles magazine. They have a long listing in the back of shows coming up in the month all across the US.

Well, what can I say..

Reptiles magazine is really good! It's where I first learned about the shows.

The best place to see shows if you dont wanna sped money on a magazine is right on the home page of Kingsnake.com it list ALL upcoming shows.
