San Antonio Show

snakecollector Nov 15, 2005 10:07 AM

Who all from here was at the San Antonio show? I had a blast and picked up some new gabbies and some other odds and ends there to fill in gaps in my collection. I was tempted to get some albino atrox (there were lots there!), but maybe next year.

I picked up a nice "Venomoids SUCK" shirt LoL... I also saw a shirt that had something about "Baddreptiles" with a midwest city, OK address.... wasn't sure what that had to do with hot snakes but I guess the joke was lost on me?

Was a great show and a great time. Looking forward to it again!

I was there and I was also selling Albino atrox! Seeing old friends was fun. Lots of new faces at this show.

I was there for the spring show in June. I purchased a male Albino Atrox there from Chris Reimann of The Gila Ranch. Great Animal!! Chris was the only one there with any back in June. When you say there was a lot there this time, how many is a lot, and what were the prices like. Are they coming down (because there was a lot), or are they holding steady at $400-$600? I need a female now, but can't afford one. Guess I will have to trade some stuff off to get the girl I want. Wish I could have made it to the show, but It's a lllooonnnggg drive down from Missouri.

Oh yeah I forgot NO VENOMOIDS at the show. *sings* Oh, happy day!
well at least when I got there there werent any. Tim did any of the vendors have any?

TimCole Nov 17, 2005 10:36 AM

I didn't see any. But then I didn't see the pastels either! Who had those? I did get 2.1 Trimeresurus fasciatus & 0.0.6 Protobothrops jerdonii xanthomelas. All but one ate right away. Looking forward to the color change with the jerdonii.

did you get those from Harlan? I wish I had the money to spend on the protobothrops I'm definately getting some next show. I almost bought some Trimeresurus trigonocephalus from him.

TimCole Nov 19, 2005 12:35 AM

I did get them from him. And they all have fed.
