Anyone else going? I am planning on being there. I don't think that I am going to be working at this one. There are some other events also going on at the fairgrounds that I want to check out. These are:

-Carolina Reptile & Exotic Animal Show
-Carolina Roller Derby.....
-American Kennel Club Dog Show
-NCDCTA Horse Show
-Gem, Mineral, and Jewelry Show
-Flea Market

Here is the link to the NC State Fairgrounds website, which has links to all of the events:

As usual, it is less than a week away, and Gila Productions has once again failed to update their vendor list...

Any one go today? How was it?

I went today. Even though the show has gotten smaller, there is still a decent selection of animals from the vendors. I didn't see much in the way of high speed, high dollar BP morphs, but there is quite a variety of the low-mid priced morphs. There is also a decent selection of Milk, King, and a few Rat and Pine snakes, but not many Corn snakes. There are a few juvenile and sub-adult Burms available. You can tell that the Boa birthing season is starting. A month ago, at Myrtle Beach, there were hardly any boas at all, but now baby boas are showing up on some of the tables. As far as lizards go, there are two Beardie vendors, quite a few Crested geckos, a couple of Ackies, and a couple of Veiled Chameleons. I don't recall seeing any Leopard or Fat-tailed geckos, monitors, or iguanas. Other animals that are available include miniature pigs, hedgehogs, cavys, rabbits, an assortment of other rodents, some Bengal cats (not tigers), and there is one table with a bunch of birds, parakeets or parrots, I'm not sure...
