Excited and nervous...

[erich_7719]

Long, back, story short... Been into reptiles, mostly snakes, for most of my life. First snake ever bought was an albino Burm. Time went on and decided to get another snake, it ended up being a BP. After about a year I searched the web for an enclosure for my BP. When I came upon a gentleman that was selling the rest of his collection along with a freedom breeder rack. I did some research and crunched some numbers, then decided to take the plunge. Started with 3 males and 5 females for the first breeding season; that went very well, in my opinion.

That brings me to today... the part where I am excited/nervous. In November I will be setting up as a vendor at a local reptile show, I have been to the show as a patron, a couple of times, but never as a vendor. The part I think I'm most nervous about is what to expect. I mean, I understand a lot about the snakes and I am confident I could answer most any question that may arise, but I am still nervous.

I am curious if you have been a vendor, has this happened to any one else? Also, what was your first show like to you?
