Well, vending at the show was an AWESOME expierience, and I must say I'll definately be doing it again sometime. I found new homes through selling or trading for all my adult cornsnakes, 2 chinchillas, my dumeril's ground boa, two baby concinnus, my last beardie, Fluffy the savannah monitor, a blue lobster, my two pueblans, a bunch of tanks
and some random guy's four spiders and gecko! He jsut pulled up beside us as we were taking things in and he said that his dad had passed away and he needed a place for them to go... a fan footed gecko, and 4 spiders (red knee, orange baboon, pink toe and rose hair) and they came with the coolest cage! Well anyway, I will divide this post into 2 parts, first my new additions, and then some AWESOME shots of snakes at the show!

Oh by the way I did well enough to fund for racks... I am the proud new owner of 4 Boamaster snake racks!!! He gave me SUCH a good deal!
Here they are in the snake room:

and now... NEW SNAKES!
Picked up this lovely new concinnus, I just couldn't resist his charm! I LOVE the red streaks on his neck!

And with her came this adorable female radix!

Next up is my new King Rat! This snake has the alert, inquisitive personality of a garter or an Indigo! He is 6 feet and highly assertive but NEVER aggressive!

Oh, amazing pics Shannon, all of them... keep us posted on those sunbeam snakes, I've read they are tricky to take care of and not very hardy-- but am anxious to hear how yours do. :)

PS-- did you sell the Ed at your table too??? :D
