We've been home for a while settling things in... I thought it was a fab show, and everyone was really friendly, particularly the stewards etc

I'd already arranged to pick up a lavender motley corn from PeteQ (who was very nice and had some GORGEOUS kingsnakes- anyone get?), so apart from that I just bought bits and bobs for vivs and tubs, and a job lot of aspen (hmm, living the high life!).

Here's Kinsey:


Just a quick cuddle before settling in - he's now fast asleep under his substrate. Had a busy day, the poor little baby.

My husband had a more fun time - he'd set up an exo terra for a leopard gecko, but wasn't sure what he wanted, so he had a big shopping experience... this little girl was a definite 'yes':



I believe she was from Repzotic, who had some really gorgeous cresties, also.

Although WE managed to buy the most obvious animals to get at a show, I thought there was quite a good selection of stuff... there were more than a handful of very beautiful GTPs, some lovely carpets and some cracking milksnakes.... some beautiful royal morphs as well. And millipedes. For some reason I spent quite a long time looking at them, even though they make my knees feel weak, haha.

I went.
Delivered some lizards for a chap that I collected on the way.

Came home with 3 different types of stick insects.
One male MBK who is the nicest softest snake I have ever handled.
And a male Sinaloan milk snake who's still in the tub at the mo, I'm sure he'll crap on me so he'll be last to be put away.

All in all a pleasant meeting.
Met up with a few old faces and nice to see new ones.


Best of all.................came back with cash in my pocket and very happy with what I bought.
