    what to get at reptile expo?

    been waiting a few months and the day has come, tommorrow im going to my third expo this year.

    Anyways, i have a list of things im going to get, such as spare infrared bulbs (winter time is coming in ny) and aspen bedding, another can of PAM and reptile relief just incase.

    Anyway, for the person who has the ideal setup like me, and by ideal i mean everything needed (ultratherm uth hooked up to herpstat, 2 identical hides, good water dish, infrared bulb when needed) what should i pick up extra ? what are some of the things you guys stock up on while at the expo?

    Oh, and no i dont feed F/T so thats not needed...

    An extra snake sounds like in order! :p

    All jokes aside. If those items on your list are when you're looking for, then just buy those and browse. Who knows, even if you feel like you have everything, you never know what you will find that can be useful. You might even walk out with another snake. LOL

    Sounds like you thought of everything! Only other thing I tend to look at is chlorhexadine for cleaning. Its expensive to ship and I can't buy it in stores around here so I sometimes pick up a gallon if I'm getting low when I go to an expo. Its great for cleaning and disinfecting and very safe for reptiles.

    Of course I also look at other snakes too............

    Re: what to get at reptile expo?

    Maybe some spares of the electronics you have incase something decides to fail?
