Default Barking Show Question

Hi there, As a newb to the world of Leos I've spent the last month or so reading as many different forums and care sheets as possible to make sure we could care for a Leo properly. Over the next couple of weeks I'll be buying a vivarium and setting it ready for our new family member but now to my question....

...will there be many Leos for sale at show on the 8th of July in Barking and how well attended are these shows?

I live in Dagenham so this would be an excellent place for me to buy a Leo and my preference would be to buy from a breeder / owner rather than a shop as I feel they would have been reared with a bit more TLC.

Sorry if this was a bit long winded but I'd appreciated your comments. Thanks

As NNY said, you can never really tell, when i went to one last year there were quite alot of leo's even different morphs, there was a lovely orange one, i am sure there called R.A.P.T.O.R.S and that was £500, it was gorgous though, i was tempted

Thanks, I haven't been to one of these shows before and I'm just trying to get a generally feeling as to how well attended they are.

As I'm local my plan is to get there as soon as it opens before it gets to busy so I can have a good look round. I've got what seems to be quite a good reptile shop about ten minutes away from me as well so I have a couple of options in case there isn't to much at the show.

Thanks again.

If its a leo you are after and you dont find what you want at the Barking show try Ray Hine at http://www.rayhinereptiles.com/ He is in Wickford Essex and has been breeding leos for many years now

Greenphase - I've seen Ray's site on my web travels, he doesn't seem to have anything at the moment but I'll defiantly check back if I don't find anything at the show. I'm ordering the viv from the web tomorrow so I won't be ready to home a Leo for a few weeks yet anyway.

Cornmorphs - I'm not after anything rare so hopefully We'll find something aat the show.

Thanks to both

Crosby if its a few weeks and nothing special then you should find whatever you are looking for at Barking but do keep checking Rays site as he has one of the largest collections of leos in the country
