Well I just got back from the tampa show and I must say it wasn't the best show i've been to but it was pretty good. There was a decent amount of variety on the ball breeders tables. Cypress Creek had some very nice pieds, an awesome caramel, a flawless spider, a couple killer super pastels and one of the best yellow ghosts i've seen. Ben Siegel had some great albino's, 2 flawless yellow bellies and tons of other stuff. ASF had the best pastels I have ever seen as well as something special they asked me not to put out in the public yet. The highlight of the show for me was Gulf Coast reptiles table. They had on display their black ball and another one of thier projects that is going to blow you off your feet when you see it. Thier black ball isn't from the cin line but from a lab line and in my opinion is prettier than the cin line black. They also had some citrus ghosts that are the nicest cleanest ghosts I have ever seen. If you haven't seen a citrus then you need to find a good pic or better yet find someone that has one, they are awesome. I will be picking up an adult het male from them next week, i was sold 10 secs after seeing them. I will have pics posted either tonight or tomorrow of the snakes I was authorized to post. Take it easy everyone, Josh Hutto

a BAD dog is MADE not bred, support the American Pit Bull Terrior as the greatest breed of dogs on Earth!!!!!

I purchased his 03 albino male and the het banded albino male from him as well as 3 additional 03 femals. I'll post pictures sometime tomorrow. I also picked up some 04 CB females, there were a ton of WC's.

I also have to say the show was "decent"... I would have loved to walk away with more but did not find all that much that made me say wow....

I believe that i was looking at his stuff when you two made the deal. I must say that albino looked very nice and you got a pretty decent deal on him if i overheard correctly. I purchased an early 04 het albino male from ben a month ago and is producing plugs now, already 550 gms. you won't regret buying from ben.

Were you the guy looking at the ablino male boa's?

Yes, I believe that I did get a good deal on the 5 I got from Ben, I made him an offer and he accepted. I did not low ball him as I felt the prices he had were great as it was.

Pictures will probably not be posted until tomorrow night now as my wife has planned a day trip down to Sarasota for us to look at the Orchid hall of fame or something..... what fun.....LOL

This was only my 2nd show, but i had fun. WOW< so much nicer seeing these Balls in real life. Loved the Piebalds and yes, the Citrus Ghosts were very nice. I am planning on getting a pair of Hets. I hope anyways. I did buy 1 female normal that weighed in at 818 grams, so i am happy. She will be ready in 4 months tops. John
