Default Hamm Newbie!!

Ok, soooooo..... I've always wanted to go to one of the big Expo's but havn't really thought about properly til tonight.....so I had a look on here and it appears Hamm is the weekend I finish uni and about a week and a half before my 21st

Goin to ask the other half if he fancies it, might be a bit of a battle as he is totally phobic of snakes. If I convince him we will most probably join one of the coach parties from Manchester (if seats are still available).

My main question is am I likely to find any adult female ackies, or is it mainly CB 07 stock?? I'm sure people have noticed my desperation to get one or two for my boy!

Any help would be great!

Thanks

Kate

Oh lovely, don't supposed you noticed the price??

See my plan is to get one of those kiddie leashes to attach him too, then he can cover his eyes when he sees snakes but I won't loose him which means he can still carry all my bags! Magic!!!

I'm just after a yellow, or normals as people seem to be calling them now. I have a male and it is proving an absolute nightmare to get a female. Only ones I have found had sold out before I managed to get in contact. I would have got a trio of hatchlings in the first place. But then there was Barney....no toes so a bit of a rescue and I couldn't resist, hence why I'm goin mad trying to find him a lady friend!

I have literally tried EVERYWHERE!!!

If I can't go I may have to convince someone to bring me one back, we shall see...
