No, i didn't see the caramel albino! It must have already sold when i got there!
Re: Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo..if you don't like tons of pics..not for you!
I know... that Bee was the BOMB! I held her and didn't want to give her back!
The Caramel and Faded Albino were sold by my dear friend Rich. He's my pre-vet man and source of at least half my snakes. Great guy.
Every time I was in the store I held that faded/reduced albino. Sweet snake. But that Caramel... oh man if I had had $1200 to spare... And as far as the low price, trust me it wasn't just to make a buck. He has a soft spot for BPs and likes keeping their prices low to let people own those morphs they otherwise never would be able to afford. I got my Het Albino girl from him for $299.
Where were you guys?? I was there at 10:45 till almost 2 and never saw anyone (unless they didn't fully introduce themselves). And I even wore my BP.net button I made!
Well, even though I wasn't supposed to get anything other than frozen rats...you just can't go to one of those shows and come away with nothing. In addition to a CornSnake T-shirt, I brought this home:

Sweet little pink snow corn female for my breeding troupe! Of course, I had to tell Ari (BF) that she was a door prize I won. :oops:
Wish I coulda seen you all there! :(

I got there around 2:30.
Don't get me wrong. I don't mind when people give people really good deals on stuff so that people can afford stuff that they regularly could not (if that's truly why they are lowering their price), but when it is being advertised up front as that much below market price, some people get the wrong idea and think that it's the new market price and lower their prices on their animals. Especially when they have 2 similarly sized Albino males (one faded (pictured) and one High Contrast) right next to it selling for the same price... If the price had been made privately, I think it would have been better.

I wish I had seen you too! I was there from 10 until 1, but I think I have issues spotting people because I am too interested in the reptiles to look up much lol! Next time we should make a plan and meet up together!
I like your little snow! Haha there were some great door prizes!
Re: Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo..if you don't like tons of pics..not for you!
if im not mistaken the caramel had a slight kink and was sold to a hobbyist rather than me a breeder i inquired about it but as i want to limit the kinking to a minimum( i have 1.3 caramels flawless) i thought it better not to purchase it as did the salesman but it didnt last for me to come around again

Ah. Didn't know since I never held that Caramel. But I did learn that he and his wife have their own business breeding and selling snakes, and that often times he will bring the 'less attractive' or surplus ones to the store to sell for a lower price. So that may explain it as well. :)
And, I know what you mean about looking more at the reptiles. I nearly missed two people I knew well because of the snakes I was staring at. :)
If you plan on attending the August show, maybe we can set up something for then!
Re: Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo..if you don't like tons of pics..not for you!
My husband and I were there as well... there were so many animals there we liked but we made a promise not to buy anything more than feeder roaches for our beardies this time around. We were there around noon. Don't know what any of you guys look like otherwise I would've said hi! :) Although we were in a bit of a hurry to see all the animals before I had to go to work this afternoon...its no fun being in a hurry..there were so many I would've liked to hold and learn more about. Oh well, maybe in August. :) This was the 3rd consecutive Rocky Mtn Reptile Expo we've been to and was wondering if there were any other reptile get-togethers in the Denver area, if so I wanna know about em! :)
Re: Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo..if you don't like tons of pics..not for you!
Wow amazing!! thanks for the pics ive always wanted to go to a show :] none really in my area though which is sad :/ But thanks for the pics!!! I'd love to see more!!!

Re: Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo..if you don't like tons of pics..not for you!
I will be going to the show in august if any of you want to plan a get-together. I wouldn't be opposed to meeting before or after the show as well for a hang-out, as it seems like I rarely get to hang out with people who are genuinely interested in reptiles!
Re: Rocky Mountain Reptile Expo..if you don't like tons of pics..not for you!
Sounds great to me! Since school doesn't start until the 11th, and I'm still not sure if I'll have a job this summer to interfere (sigh), a nice get-together would be cool. :) We'll have to do some thinking.
