I was wondering myself, since mites seem like a pretty easy thing to pick up at a show. I think that would be about the only thing I would really worry about unless people were holding their snakes in the same hand as one of mine-which wouldn't happen. So far I haven't sold at any shows, but one day in the next couple year I plan to get a table at a small show. It's always nice reading advice/practice tips from people with experience!
