Hey guys, just woke up and I'm about to head back for my 3rd day of the expo. Being a BCC enthusiast, it seems like Daytona is becoming less and less my style. It's OVERLOADED with morphs of this and that and you can only find a handful of BCC here and there. I've found myself walking around not even looking for animals, just looking for old friends to catch up with.
I will say however that I agree with another person who posted and said that the ball python market seems to be less represented than in years past. Matter of fact, the person I'm helping usually has people beating down his door for normal females on Friday morning during set up and sells out, but he still has a nice size female sitting on his table and not a single person has inquired about it. And I definitely agree that the boa morph market has exploded this year.
Me personally, I've fallen in LOVE with the green phase sanzinia. Holy crap they're SO nice!!!
The folks at the Hilton haven't really given anyone any real crap about having animals in the hotel as far as I know. So I'm not sure what their reason was for sending out that letter to everyone. They could have been trying to drive away the business for future shows, or it could have been a "CYA" thing in case of an irate customer because of a loose animal or who knows what?
The UGLIEST animal I've seen so far was Kara @ NERDS prized ball X woma. She calls it "the wall". There is NOTHING appealing about this animal at all. And I'm not saying that because I'm some super purist. I'm saying that because it's friggin ugly. But I love Kara to death so I just smiled and said, "well, it's certainly different".
Anyway, seven more hours worth of show, a few hours of packing and we're done till next year. =( Hopefully next year I'll have a few babies to contribute to the population of bcc being offered as will others.
