Yeah, I thought it was much better than the Repticons in the past, really good show in my opinion, with really good looking animals for the most part. If the Repticon shows in the future in Atlanta are like this I would attend every one.
P.S. I am still not too enthused with outside animals being able to be brought into the show, but after this show this weekend, that is the only downside to the Repticon show.

I would also like to report - WOW! It was like a totally different show than the last one I went to this time last year. Animals looked healthy for the most part (a few thin balls, but not the over-riding theme). No mites or ticks that I could see. The Elrod's efforts at improving the show are stikingly noticeable and you can tell they've worked hard to build it up. Was very disappointed to see Big Daddy was there, and I still don't agree with allowing people to come into the show carrying their own animals to sell - but I just avoided coming in contact with them (as well as made a WIDE berth around Big Daddy's table). Overall - I give it an A! Good job, Cathy!

I didn't stay nearly as long as I wanted to, but my better half wasn't feeling well. But we had a wonderful time!!! the girls are sporting great face paints, and I came home with a 1.2 trio of sinaloan milk babies and a 3 yr old hondo, tangerine phase. All are just beautiful and happily settling in. The big boy (George now) is still out wandering around.
It was great to meet Robin, Deborah, Mike, Chuck, Trey and Cathy, I wish I could have met you all.
Well, my new snake fix is sated for a while, until the next free paycheck anyway!!!
