Gold Coast Reptile Expo 2012??

[Kitarsha]

Getting enclosures too and from might be a PITA tho - or do people have temp enclosures? And how many critters would be the preferred option or does that depend on the spot given to set up?

Not sure i could display - tho most of my reptiles are cuddly darlings - just curious as it could be fun! Will certainly be there to check everything out if nothing else!

 

[troycoop]

Still vendor stalls available, Troy? I'm prettya sure I'm @ the comedy club that night, so I'll have to be sober all day this year.

its up to you how many animals you wish to bring and the space to set up is on the size of the enclosures.

can you buy snakes there

after the meeting today with DERM its not looking good but working on it.

 

[Blake182]

[Just_Plain_Nuts]

hopeful they do

P.s are snakess cheap at expos or not

 

[Kitarsha]

Depends on the reptile, the seller, the expo, what else is available

 

[Manda1032]

hmmmm that's the main reason why people go

 

[Kitah]

Even if you can't buy AT the expo- you still have the potential to meet breeders and discuss what they may have for sale after the expo. You still get to see the animals that may be available

This will hopefully be my first expo

 

[Leeloofluff]

I'll be all over this expo like a rash!

 

[Flaviruthless]

Yeah... but some of us are travelling over 4 hours to be there so unless they have the animals in their hotel room most will go home empty handed

 

[Manda1032]

[raycam01_au]

[troycoop]

How is the Gold Coast expo any different from the Scales & Tails expo last year?? Not trying to start an argument, just curious, when Scales & Tails received permission to sell 'commercial' animals, and now DERM are saying no animals for sale at Qld Expos whatsoever..??
