should i go the first day, or the second day? i really really want to come home with a lil dragon from the show, i dont have top dollar to spend at this time so im not expecting to come home with a super bright baby but i figured at the show i have the best chance and best selection to find at least a red phase that i can afford, besides,i thought it would be fun to hand pick my baby, i have never done that before...im afraid that if i go the second day that most everything will be bought up, and afraid that if i go the first day people are really going to try and kill us on the prices, i never really go to these shows so i am really uncertian what to do... guess im making too much outta it, im just really looking forward to bringing home a new dragon, the empty enclosure is makin me crazy! argh wish the show wasnt so many days away =)

Definately the first day. Always best to be there first thing when the doors open. You may pay more, but the selection will be that much better(size/color/sex), and you never know someone may just have a killer deal and you might be the first person to see. You can always go back if the prices are just crazy. I would definately go the first day. Chris

San Diego show is usually a buyer's market. So I wouldn't sweat the price issue too much. Come expecting a full day though as it's quite the show. We'll be there with a booth towards the front of the hall. You'd better stop by and say "hey"

hey do you guys have any red phase dragons or anything of the sort? really set on red for some reason this time around hehe.. your lil yellow fellows are looking really great this year....

thanks for the advice both you and chris, ill be there bright and early the first day =) and ill definatly visit your booth....i dont think i have ever introduced myself as "reiko" before, it would just feel weird, so ill be the one saying "hi im rea"

this is me, minus the birds, just so ya might recognize the face and dont just think some girl is talking crazy like you should know who she is or something

nice pic of you and the birds

Is that an umbrella cockatoo or a less crested cockatoo? It looks like an umbrella but a lil small... I used to have an umbrella and he was very cool...

Def get to the show first thing like they mentioned above.. you can def find good deals at the end of the show, but if you are looking for a pet it's worth the extra cash to get a "better" one.
