Tinley show in Chicago

[Tori]

Will anyone be attending the Tinley show in Chicago this month on the 12th and the 13th?

not me....... wish i could!!!!!

I found a guy with a W/C adult Blackneck and he only wants $30 for it. But he lives in Iowa and won't ship. A friend of his is willing to deliver it to Tinley this month, but I can't afford to go that far for a show. I thought that maybe someone else was going that might like to have it.

Ummm.... ME! lol!! Omg... I wish I could scrape together $30 + shipping... *cries*

'Rockster, he won't ship.

And Black-Necks *aren't* native to Iowa...

I think there may be more to the pic than what we know about this guy getting rid of his Black-Neck. PARTICULARLY at $30.00.

As far as I know he has gotten into ball pythons and is getting rid of his other snakes. That's all I really know about him, though. I do know that the forum where he belongs kind of look down their noses at anything that isn't a "real snake". Might be peer pressure.

[GartersRock]

HAHA. As far as I know. ALL snakes are real snakes and EVERYONE has ball pythons. So whats his point.

Too funny!

I still belong to the same forum, but very quickly realized that garters were not considered to be "real snakes". I now check out their "member-to-member" sales ads if I go there at all. The core group of the forum are all breeders of designer balls and other pythons.

To bad I actually see that all the time though. But it's true! I walk into a pet store. Whats your favorite snake Amanda? Well. Probably my puget sound and flame garters. WHA? Garters?? Get yourself a ball python! Uh sir. Everyone has ball pythons. The market is flooded with them. Why is that so "cool". Well... I don't know. Anyone can find a garter in their backyard.
Not these garters! And anyone can find a ball python on craigslist. lol

And I HAVE blood pythons and lots of other stuff like that. "Cooler" stuff then his normal common boas and balls. One other thing I have noticed is when you say you have garters, they assume you are poor or something and don't have anything else.
