Here are lots of pictures from the NRBCA show in Tinley Park from last weekend. Had a great time there and my 2 boys love it to this was there first time at this show. I let my older son use the camera and he took lots of pictures for me as I was helping my buddy Damon this year at his booth.
Take care

This Tiger retic is named Twiggy and she belongs to Jim Gaspar. She is over 20 feet long, 250 lbs. and 9 years old.

This had to be one of they best looking snake at the show.

Jeff Ronne had some of the best looking boas and the show.

Thanks,

0.1 Wife (WC and still very fiesty)
0.2 kids (CBB, a big part of our selective breeding program)

LOL, to many snakes to list, last count:
26.49 BRB
20.21 BCI
And those are only the breeders

lots.lots.lots feeder mice and rats

That's more than I was able to take time to look at. I didn't notice you taking pictures this time, or I would have taken some out for you to photograph Tom. Sorry about that.

This is what I am shooting for!

That kind of red but on a Boa. I'll get there and maybe this Monster Tail Pastel (he is NOT a Hypo) you photographed, in the back, will help me along that road:

Or perhaps his cousin a Monster Tail Hypo baby male...

Thanks again Tom!

Hi Jeff,

I am glad you enjoyed the pictures. I did not want to bother you when I was taking the pictures as you where being video taped. I can't wait for you to make a boa that red. I am also trying to make some red boas myself but I think I will be a few years behind you. Here is the male het albino pastel I am using. Just after this guys sheds he looks like he glows like neon in person.

This will be his girl friend in a few years. She is a Pastel het for snow.

Take care
Tom

WOW! Gorgeous pics! Stunning animals!

Thank You for all the great photos! that show must have been a blast! I am curious as to what the two big black and white snakes are below the milk snakes and above the corn snake photos they remind me sort of an angolan python?? Does any one know what they are?

Hi Brian,

These snakes are Angolan Pythons and they are related to the Ball Python.
