Where was everyone? There were so many good deals everywhere. No just kidding, I got lucky and found a female Lesser Plattie. She's a gorgeous looking bp. She's pretty shy and is distrurbed by any motion around her. I've got her in the QT room with a towel over her tub. I'm hoping to get pictures and weight tomorrow. The 1200 gram female Albino is exactly what I was hoping for. I'm going to check for folicles. The previous owner had a male in with her, so I may not have to do anything to get eggs. She's a fat little girl is she's not gravid. Wish me luck! If not, I've got a nice 600 gram male just waiting to get lucky.

I was very disappointed in the number of customer's through the door. It was a very light turn out. However, there were some pretty great deals. Some lady had 2 big Red Bloods for sale at $200 for the pair. She had just sold them when I got to her table at 9:20 am. I'd had them in my collection in a heart beat for that price. I saw more Blue Tongue Skinks today than ever before. There must have been 8-10 at different tables. There were some great deals on colubrids. Adam @ 8 Ball had some normal ball pythons at give away prices. He had a great looking Lesser het for Ghost too. I sure wish I'd hit the Powerball, cause I'd come home a poor man. A couple of BIG monitors were there too. I've always wanted a large monitor. Red and Yellow Ackies is as big as I've ever owned. There were junk animals too. An aquarium full of green iguanas is something I had hoped I'd never see again, but they were there. A few johnny herpowners were there too with some stinky herps. I walked by and wondered what that smell was and realized it was this guy's table.

All in all, I was very happy with the show. I got some great snakes, got some flexwatt tape and connectors and had a great time talking to everyone.
