I don't have any pics from the Manchester show but I did go last year to the October show. It's generally a pretty good show. Not huge by any means but there's a good amount of vendors there. I don't know about bulk rodent food or substrate I didn't notice anyone there selling that stuff but I was there more for the animals than supplies. There were a few selling f/t rodents though.

I'll let ya know how White Plains is though. I'm going to the one this weekend, should be fun!

Edit: I wouldn't bother with the Portland ME show though, it's really small. Maybe 10 vendors or so with JnJ taking up 50% of the place.

I think that makes us neighbors! I'm in Springfield

Oh hello there!

Just curious, if you use frozen rodents where do you buy from? I recently put in an order from Big Cheese Rodents but if you know of a reputable local supplier let me know.

Hey everyone!
I'm in Springfield as well (Downtown right by STCC) and if you feel like making a long arse trip you can always go to the one in PA.
I'm not a huge fan of the White Plains show only because it's people who have stores and everything tends to be expencive. The PA shows are cool because of the venemous and poisonous animals as well as the small time breeders who sell their own frozen rats/mice/chicks/ducks/pigs. I prefer the PA shows, but there are some people who go there just to sell stuff and make money.
Anyway, i have found most are better than the NH show just for sheer size. I went to the last one and was greatly dissapointed because there wasn't very much stuff (my parents live a few towns away from it). Anyway, what they did have was AWESOME it's just hard to find different things there.
I always vote the Hamburg show, personally. Great place but a loooong drive (3 maybe 4 hours from Civic Center in Springfield) and yes, i still call it the Civic Center.

Ha ha ha, they are great. I like to sing 'Shipping up to Boston' all the friggin time and people in other states think i'm weird, but do it in Massachusetts and it's almost like a musical, people just randomly join in! They did a song with my last name, too, so to me, they are the bestest

You guys need to come to the New England Herp Society meetings. neherp.com

They have a nice little flea market once or twice a year too.

Nice rodents at every monthly meeting as well.
