My First Reptile Show!

Heads-Up: Tons of pix ahead!

Ok I just got back from dinner and the 2nd annual Seattle Reptile Expo (which was actually more than an hour away and in the next county over. lol).
Overcast and a light drizzle, but imma have fun inside. :)

Lol I didn’t know that they were local (or at least an hour away in the mountains outside the city).

$25 boas! this vendor had a friend who "accidentally" bred boas from different localities, which they don't encourage, so they were selling cheap.

These folks were selling complete bioactive vivariums, plants and bugs. so cool!

Skulls: The big one was a Gaboon Viper and the one in the top left corner was a small Burmese Python.

Presented to you in reverse order:

Number 3:
Bamboo Rat Snake - This one was in shed. I love the red and the long stripe pattern.

Number 2:
This Pied female - i love her head pattern and her overall pattern and being low-white. It looks like she is wearing a cloak.
http://i.imgur.com/hBIjTlJl.jpg

Number 1:
This Green Tree Python with an Exo-Terra tank for $300 out the door!! :O It's 9 months old, starting to turn green and blue.

Too bad I'm low on play money. When I came back to this table - this baby was already gone.

Looks like you had a great time. :)

Thanks for the rundown and the great pics!

That looked like a great show! Thanks for taking the time to caption the photos, we do appreciate it. :gj:

i realized I didn't take any pix of lizards, turtles, amphibians, etc. :/

there was also a pair of male BEL hatchlings for $300 each. They were a Lesser x Russo pairing IIRC. very clean, very cute. they were gone by the time I got back. u -_- zzzz u lose. lol

there's gonna be another in the spring 2016. time to start saving now. ;) Lol

Great pics! Would love to go to an expo like that some time :)

The bi-annual one here in Calgary isn't anywhere near that size, but there's a really big one (Western Canadian Reptile Expo) 1.5 hours north of here in Red Deer that I found out about too late to go to this year.

Looks like a lot of fun on your first expo! Excellent photos and descriptions :D

Wow! Your pics and comments are great......I feel as if I was there. I would have eaten beans for days to get the Tree Python and cage for only $300!

it was a nice size, but not to the scale of say ReptiCon or NARBC/Tinley Park. still lots of vendors with nice animals and good to meet local peeps. i have another local source for live feeders now. :)

thanks. yep, i'm kicking myself for that. i told the guy i would be back and when i made my circle, poof - the baby was gone. i keep telling myself it's probably for the better, i'm already eating beans for other purchases i'm making/made. :D

ok, one more pix.

that Blood Red Corn Snake on the right. look at the reduced/non-existent color and pattern on the head. :O

what could that be?

http://i.imgur.com/UD3SoVLl.jpg

also what do folks think about the $25 boas?

those were great prices on those clowns

Looks so fun. Those guns ;), very distracting from the snakes lol. I can't wait until I go to my first this Saturday. I'll be sure to take lots of pictures. Too bad I'm not going to have any extra money :(, dang moving expenses. Guess I'll just have to go to another one in December ;).
