    Do the rep shows have fish or amphibians, or is it strictly herp?

    I'd love to have multiple curios setup for a large variety of animals.  

    No fish, yet tons of amphibians.

    We've got one of the best poison dart frogs right here in Lakewood, WA: Rainforest Poison Dart Frogs & Exotics https://www.facebook.com/Rainforestdartfrogs/

    There's always 2~4 Axolotl breeders, hehe

    Arachnids

    April is Hillsboro, OR

    Aug is PDX

    I suppose that's true. When we move (soon!) they'll all be in one room, except the beardie, who lives in the living room (we free-roam her during the summer; she likes to wander around and sit in sunbeams and the windowsill and things like that.)

    WAY cool!!!

    Okay, yeah, you're way out of our league. You're breeding, and you obviously have a much larger home than we do. There's no way we could even find time to take care of that many guys. Though we've always wanted a gargoyle, they're so pretty.

    Nah, it's all contained in 1 bedroom.

    Reptiles do NOT have to take up a LOT of space.
    Everything we have is in one bedroom.

    What reptiles, he asks... okay... *Deep inhale*

    A bearded dragon, two crested geckos, two leopard geckos, a Bauer's chameleon gecko, three viper geckos, and a corn snake.

    We... may have a problem.

    Oh please....

    1.1 Leachies (only duds last year) 😞
    2.2.2.4 Chahoua
    1.3 Gargoyles and sadly our breeder female is on the way out 😞 (Thankfully we have 2 daughters so one will replace her... sadly we didn't keep the nicest baby)
    2.0 Australian Leaf Tail
    Bearded
    Great White Northern Blue Tongue Skink
    3 Royal Pythons (Leopard Candino, Black Pastel Albino, Excalibur Line Lavender Albino, & a friend tells me I need an Ultramel to complete my Bino collection)
    Locality boas... What started as a basic collection of my favorite has turned into 2 breeding projects also
    Males: Pokigron Surinam, Pearl Island, Caulker Cay Island, & Belize City Belize
    Female: Crawl Cay (unplanned, but when a trusted breeder reaches out saying they know you've been looking for 5+ years you don't exactly argue with gender)
    2 year old pairs... meaning I have 3 more to go before I can pair them: Hog Island & Paraguanera Venezuela (Have one Dark Anery & one Light Anery to toy with the question: "does light and dark anery influence baby coloration ratios)... shouldn't

    Will I ever expand?
    ONLY if other rare Cay island boas become available
    Although Blue Tongue Skinks aren't exactly my world... I may consider a pure black Northern when Frank Payne's selective breeding completes a black... but that's a hard IF
    Or if Shinglebacks (PineCones!) ever become affordable in the US (no thank you $10K)

    Hillsboro has their first Reptile show coming up in April!

    Yeah, we normally go to the one at the hotel up by the airport twice a year, but the 'rona has put the kibosh on that the last few times.

    I believe they are predicting late May!!!

    I have aquariums! They don't have fish in them, though. Or water. Or... really anything to do with this thread, because reptiles live in them. But I wanted to feel included, so I'm piping up to derail the thread.

    ...

    AWAY! *whoosh*

    What reptiles bro?

    We like the look of salt water, but I doubt we will go down that road right away.  The kids are torn on what they want, fish or frogs, so we continue going in circles. We have a nice large space for the aquarium that has viewing from all 4 sides. So we have been planning how to hide the equipment.  

     

    @InfestedKerrigan I love the idea of having fish at the bottom of the tank for the frogs. I will look into that.

    Remember fish and frogs are not handle-able.
