2014 Phoenix Reptile Expo Pics + New Addition (80+ pics)

[Daybreaker]

Wanted to share pics taken at this year's Phoenix Reptile Expo: went on Saturday and as always had a blast! There were tons of Fire BPs here this year for some reason (also Champs and I was surprised at the lack of pieds), hots, some nice retics which was nice to see (including a pied - stunning), saw one single burm and Angolan, lots of carpets and some boas (mostly Colombian morphs, saw no Peruvians or Suris/Guyanas). Overall a nice variety and it was packed as well.

More pics coming in two other posts due to pic limit:

And last but not least my new addition! I was bad...wasn't planning on anything but good guy Daniel Solis (Reptile AVE) gave me too good of a deal to pass her up: lavender albino citron retic girly. This girl's colors are amazing and so bright already at such a young age, can't wait to see how she grows up! So far she's super sweet as well, very well mannered. I got my platty female from Dan last year and she's superb: I have no doubt this girl will be just as amazing for her genetics when she matures.

Hello!





















And to compare my little blond male from Chase Delles: totally different genes but it will be neat to see them both grow up and see their colors change together (they're both roughly the same age)!





Hey Ma:




All in all another great show!

Whoo boy! I would have left with all 3 of those amarali at that price. Thanks for the awesome post really well documented.

Wow! I can see why it's so difficult to go home empty handed. So many pretties to choose from!

I managed to come home empty handed, but if I didn't, that Enchi Mimosa female was up near the top of my list. There was also a smoking Black Pastel Banana that caught my eye.

Great pictures!

She is gorgeous!! I spent quite a while at the booth she was at just admiring. I am nowhere near in a position to pick up anything that will grow to that size yet (much more experience needed) but I love to at least get to see them in the mean time. It was a really good show, definitely worth the trip. I didn't plan on getting anything but supplies either, but still came home with an adult male tremper leopard gecko. For me the hardest part wasn't all the choices, it was seeing so many people leaving with new friends, pretty much all my self control went right out the window. At least I wound up with something pretty small and beginner lol.

Wow!! Looked like a great show. Your girl is gorgeous too. Thanks for taking the time to post all of the pics!
