    I didn't see any either. They usually sell pretty quick even on here don't they? So maybe nobody had any to bring.

    Quarantine is important no matter where you get an animal from. I think it's a little overstated to say this is a disaster waiting to happen, especially considering how many people buy animals from these shows without incident

    i really don't see the difference between buying at an expo or straight from the breeder. yes you should quarantine, but you aren't at a higher risk because you bought from an expo.

    Can you actually back that statement up with any first hand experience?
    Any reptile from anywhere should be quarantined regardless.

I absolutley adored seeing more reptiles and wish i had taken more money with me Sucked that i didnt know who anyone was thou who ever mentioned we should have all worn our aps names was right lol
    I didn't know there were name tags for members,that would be great at expo's

    technically you need an import licence from OHE

    that was a bad job to volunteer for and the parking/transfer system was pretty bad (not your fault )so I can understand people getting ****** off .Also you missed out on the fun inside.
    Its a pity that there is no APS badge for us to wear to spot each other.
