Chicago-land breeder

[shescountry89]

Yeah I definatly would check out this weekends show in Wheaton, it's fun & has lots to choose from! There are quite a few awesome breeders there as well.

Look up Carl Vail. He breeds and is at every Wheaton show. I will be there Sunday getting mice from him. I have bought several snakes from him and have never had any problems. Carl is a great guy. There are a lot of good people at the show. If you want to meet up at the Wheaton show let me know and I can get you in touch with some nice breeders. Carl does have Lessers and many other morphs.

Shock: they can?! Awesome! I didn't know that =) I'll have to call them and inquire about pricing.

Aaron: Gorgeous animals, but their Lessers are expensive still a viable option if nothing else pans out though, thanks!

Maybe send them an offer? You never know!

Are you breeding anything this year? I'm breeding a male cinnamon to my female pastel who is a smoker. Maybe work out some kind of trade? I live in joliet so manhattan isn't far from me. Keep in touch.

I'm in Joliet too and I have some good pairings planned for this season. PM me and we'll hook up or something some time.

crbballs - unfortunately, no, as I only have one BP so far, lol! Plus, I don't have the money for that just yet, but maybe in the future =)

clint - I'm even closer than Manhattan, actually, lol. I live in Frankfort; the breeder I know of is in Manhattan. And unfortunately, I won't be able to the Wheaton expo I want to go, but my brother needs my car for work. I really appreciate the offer, though! I might hit you up another time if there's another expo in the area =)

foschi - I probably won't be able to buy another BP for months (I need to save up money) but once I do, I'll definitely hit you up! I'm really interested in lessers, pewters (though those are quite expensive...), and butters, so if you have any of those when I decide I can afford another one, that'd be pretty sweet! Would you happen to know of any vets in the area who deal with snakes? I don't have any problems at the moment, but I don't want to be floundering to find a good vet when/if a problem DOES arise >.<

[Foschi Exotic Serpents]

Yes. Dr Bray at the Crest Hill Animal. He's the only strictly exotics vet in the area. He only deals with reptiles and birds and has treated 3 of my snakes in the last 8 years. I highly recommend him. He always recommends having cultures done and stool samples. He is very knowledgable.

Oops. Crest Hill Animal Hospital. It's on Rt 30 across the street from Sonic Drive In.

I didnt realize there was so many Chicago land people on here! I should have some lessers this season coming up but like Foschi said Im hoping for all white snakes too! Everyone above mentioned has very nice animals. I have seen animals from all those breeders and they are top notch. You cant go wrong with any one of them. Good luck getting what your looking for and good luck to all the local breeders this season!

Thanks guys! And yeah, I didn't realize there were so many chicago people on here either, it's awesome!
