Repticon is proud to announce a Brand NEW sponsor for this show: Bearden's Burms
Bearden's Burms is owned and operated by Sam and Theresa Bearden of Ladson, South Carolina. Their goal at Bearden's Burms is to provide high quality Burmese Pythons at a reasonable affordable prices. They are passionate about their animals and strive to maintain optimal health and husbandry of their collection.
Their first breeding was a normal to an albino producing some very light het albinos. This began their fascination with these gorgeous giants and Bearden's Burms was born. In the last few years they have expanded their breeding collection. They are currently concentrating on albinos, greens, and granites, and the numerous combinations of the three morphs.

Cant wait

[GenePirate]

We'll have a table. But, our higher-end stuff is nearly gone, so just a lot of mojaves, cinnys, pastels, lessers, albinos, spiders, and a pied and BEL or two.

Should be fun! Stop by and introduce yourself!
