    All Animal Expo Chicago Feb-7th
    http://www.allanimalexpo.com/

    Is anyone going to this or does anyone regularly go to this?
    I will be attending this coming weekend and would love to meet some people. I want to get more involved in the ball python world!
    Also, I would like to learn how to pop a BP (those videos don't help too much D:)
    I won't be purchasing any new BP's myself, but I will probably pick up some feeders. :3

    If there is another thread for this, please redirect me :D

    Yes, yes you do ;)

    So you haven't been there since it was in Schaumburg? Wow. I went to it a few times when it was out there. It's a lot more convenient for me now. I go at least once a month :D

    I usually go over to the show, not so much in the winter, and less frequently now because I dont have room to put anything i'd walk out of there with! Great show though!

    At the new location they changed the building several times...

    I like it in the largest building. A lot more room. Like 10' wide rows. Lots of space :)

    The first one they used when they moved the show was alright too.

    Must suck for all you when you have to find a parking spot LOL

    Come at around 12 instead of when the doors open and I'm sure you'll have that problem :D

    I usually see people blocking in other people. That would upset me very very much.

    Well I will have to find you anyway. :D :D

    I don't really know the place so I don't know where a good meeting spot would be? I will probably be getting there around 11 or 12 (I suck at getting up early). I will probably just be in normal jeans-and-a-t-shirt.

    Back of the building. Left side. You'll see a square/circle of 8 tables, including terrariums. I'll be the one working wearing a Yankees hat and who is in need of a hair cut but wants to see how he would look as a greaser.

    I've only been once so far. Main reason I went was so my nephew could see all the crazy stuff people like us keep in our homes. I told him for two weeks "we're just going to look, we're not buying anything!" 'cus I figured he would try to come home with a puppy or something. Well, we each came home with a new BP. :D

    I won't be there this week, but I'll be going again soon. When I can manage to scrape together enough $$ for an albino male.

    As I told nixer, if anyone sees me don't ask me a question about anything that is not a python, monitor, or scorpion! I don't know what half the stuff at the table is and I don't want to look like an idiot by you asking "what kind of cage requirements do these box turtles need?"... I will stand there and stare and go "ummm basically... uhhh.... a big cage" LOL
