I agree with most of what you said. Silkworms are expensive but 5 bucks is cheaper than the normal 10 dollars that you pay for a culture. I don't want to raise silkworms any time soon and I don't have a mulberry tree because they cost too much. The next IRBA show is in May I think, in San Mateo. The San Diego show is in July and October (always). I remember the show you were talking about in Vegas. It was November 27 and 28 at the Tropicana and there were showgirls there (I heard). I wanted to go but vegas is pretty far away. I got to the IRBA show right when it opened and not many people were there, although a couple hours later there were a good amount of people. You came on Sunday if I'm not mistaken and I wouldn't be suprised if no one was there. As long as ABR, the Kammers, Reptile Depot, and LLL are there, I'm happy. I could care less about all the other vendors. The only bad thing about the show was that you had to park far away. I get all my stuff at the shows because the same stuff is waaaaaaay over priced at the local pet shops and I don't want to pay all that money for shipping from the big dealers. Overall I was happy because I got to look around which was something I forgot to do at the show in San Diego.
