Re: NARBC @ Tinley Park, March 2018!
this is my POtS! Pick of the Show! a male Bamboo GHI.
this guy blew me away. the color of the head on this guy was amazing!!! with blue eyes and that stunning Bamboo color and patterning. you can see something interesting happening along the edges of the pattern on the dorsal; the black sort-of outlines. he was amazing!

no, i didn't ask! ): the vendor that had them was in the back corner of the convention hall, and it's always a NIGHTMARE back there; human traffic jam, shoulder to shoulder (i complained about it in my past threads lol). i was having a lot of anxiety and didn't want to hold such a lil worm. :tears:
tttaylorrr,
Yeah, $50K is a little rich for my blood. Since I keep them as pets, my limit is $40K a snake :cool::P:rolleyes:.
I understand, those shows can be a nightmare of foot traffic. I am sorry you didn't get to hold a scaleless animal yet. Hopefully, that changes soon!
Thanks for the response and again, glad you had a good time.

GREAT deals on Bananas! not many CGs tho which is what i was looking for!
i'll have to go through my phone and see which ones might be JD Constriction; he was next to JKR. he's a really nice guy (John)!!!

they're the same thickness as their other hides, but with the shape and without the "feet" it leaves them feeling kinda...eh. i really liked the sizes, TBH; those could fit better in smaller tubs. still very light-weight; my only complaint about RBI hides.

Re: NARBC @ Tinley Park, March 2018!
I was at the show too this year!! It was me and my husbands first time going and it was INCREDIBLE!!! I have almost all the same pictures as you do [emoji7] I got to meet so many of my reptile idols. We talked to Justin for a while and I almost hyperventilated I literally almost cried it was bad. Talked to Mark Petros and some others too. It was like a huge dream come true. Bought a bunch of JKR shirts too
