Having been to NARBC, the Iowa reptile show, and WIRE in Wisconsin in the past 3 months, I have to say that the MN show was bigger than two of those (with NARBC being the biggest of course).

Don't be dissapointed in the size, most local shows are even smaller.

I was also disappointed at the rainbow boas and carpet pythons, but we DID walk away with one of the female rainbows, and was exactly the kind of rainbow my gf was looking for (nice bright red color).

I liked the show, and we can only expect future ones to be bigger.

As far as lacking carpet pythons, rainbow boas, and leachies, give me another 3 years and I'm going to be producing them all
