Gold Coast Reptile Expo 2012

I might be wrong but at the Ipswich expo people were allowed to sell reptiles. it was all done separate to the main expo if that changes anything

Apparently DERM made a mistake letting this happen at Ipswich and they will not let it happen again anywhere in Qld....till they change their mind and move with the times....why do people have to be so impulsive...is it so hard to look at the snakes that are for sale (we all know they are) and take a card and see them the following day?

Will the big reptile one stand be there again?

Slightly off topic, but does SA ever get a reptile expo?

I found the answer to my question.... Unfortunately we aren't big enough to have one!

Maybe a holiday to QLD is in need!

[Manda1032]

nah man go to the ones in Melb!

[Blake182]

we all need to send them a emal of all our names
saying we should be able to buy reptile and it will boost the reptile indusdey
(sorry for the bad spelling)

[snake79]

So we can buy them in parking lot

Ummm ... I don't know of one single reptile breeder that would call the parking lot their residence

While animals on display may not be available for sale at the Expo venue I am sure if breeders/buyers have made previous arrangements that animals may be delivered before/after the Expo.

I beleive the organisers of the Gold Coast Reptile Expo are working with DERM - not trying to outsmart DERM

The point being NO animal transactions are to take place at the actual Expo venue (to keep within the specifications required through DERM.)

Hi everyone the Gold Coast Reptile Expo is on again. The dates this year are July 28th & 29th. It would be great to get more private collectors to come and show off what they have. All private displays go in the draw to win an albino carpet python.

If anyone has any questions feel free to ask me. I've attached the form for those interested in coming and attached the flyer for all the information.

Look forward to seeing you all there
Cheers
Troy

I'll have a display, all things going to plan. I'll be bringing along some stunning Jungles and a couple of different coastal morphs. . . might even bring the striped MD.

There was(is) a big annual pet expo in SA. When I was there SAHG used to have an area where members could show off their animals. Contact them to find out if its still on. And the beauty of SA is that reptile enthusiasts were treated by the gov as an asset, not as an inconvenience/potential criminals.
