Our first show!

We made our first show yesterday - the IHS show which this time was held in Wolverhampton.

We had a really great time and met some of our friends from another forum,. bought some new babies! and were tempted by many more!!

I got to see a gorgeous albino BP but no pieds at this show and a pair of spectacular striped hogg island boas. Hundreds of Leopard Geckos, Crested Geckos, Bearded Dragons and rankins, and plenty of beautiful reptiles. If I had more money so many animals would have been in the car with us on the way home!!

We are hoping to get a table at one or some of the shows next year where we can sell some of our babies.

Sadly... *prepares for the tomato throwing* ..we forgot the camera!!! So no pics!

Haha, well to be honest, I made Joe swear that we wouldn't be bringing any other herps home except the snake that we had planned to get.. it was me who caved and got the leo!! Maybe you should take your wife along and she'll buy the herps, that way you're both happy

A Reptile show just isn't a show until you buy something!

Congrats on the new babies....

I'm glad you guys had fun at the show. I love to go and look at all the cool things I would love to bring home, but restrain myself. Or should I say that Dom says no when I give him the look of "please, can I have him?". LOL
