    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Looking for MO, OK, KS, AR Shows!!

Look at some other

sites for " events ". Kansas does not have hardly any because of the tax problem of collecting tax at these events ( I think this might be one reason at least ). There is only one in Kansas ( supposedly monthly ) and I heard it is real small and could go out the window at any time. Missouri has some really big shows including 2 put on by the KCHS held in spring and fall at the main air port out side of Kansas City. St. Louis has about 4 to 5 a year ( I think it is still this number ). Columbia Mo. hasn't had any for awhile ( they use to ). There are a couple of venomous shows in the Ozarks but there seems to be a lack of some colubrids ( corns/kings ) at these shows or the pickings are slim. Little Rock has a couple of shows , I think , put on by the same people of the Ozark shows but venomous are not included so colubrids are found more there. Tulsa and Ok City has some and maybe by the same people again but without venomous again.

The Broken Arrow show isn't a bad. It's a tough time of year for shows due to weather. You never know how many vendors are gonna show.
 
Who puts that show on

in Broken arrow ? Is it Wes Green ?

Thanks

Wes Green

The web site lists Jason or Kelli Cruse and Jim Burns. It doesn't say anything about Wes Green. However, I have not attended yet. Maybe Inside Out would know more.
 
Hey Kevin. We do 4 or 5 shows a year in broken arrow. This is the 1st of the year. We have commitments from a corn/king breeder from Dallas and another from Tulsa. There should be at least 15 vendors and 40 plus tabels there depending on the weather. The show gets better every time. There is everything from anoles to aldabra torts. Also not sure where mike gets his info but theres not a chance of the k.c. show closing down. it is not as big as the airport show but the prices are not as high either.

I do have to agree with Jim you will find a large variety of reptiles at the tulsa show. I'm looking forward to the trip.
 
Show in Kansas

Hello - there is actually a show in Overland Park, Kansas. Just to set the record straight it is every other month and it is NOT about to go out the window any day. People anticipate every other month and really enjoy coming. It is not the largest show in the world, but I believe that the vendors come in, make a little money, and leave happy! It is a fun show in a great area.... any questions let me know!!
Thanks, Kelli
