Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Valpo Indiana and Indy shows.
Do any of you here attend either of these shows? What do you think of them so far as variety and value for the buyer attending?

Indy Show
The Indianapolis show is very unpredictable. I've gone some months and the place is totally full of vendors and great to go to, and I've gone other months and the place was half empty. So I guess it depends if you go on a good month or not. I haven't figured out a pattern on when to go either. I think they used to be better when they did them on the Sundays after the All Ohio Swap was on the Saturday before???
Good Luck!
Rick

`We vend at Valpo every month, and it is usually a very small show, 6-15 herp vendors, and the same # who sell birds, bird supplies, sometimes there are puppies or kittens or a wide variety of house plants and Chinchillas. I have not been to Indy in a while, but it used to be a pretty good show and I am sure it is still much bigger/better than Valpo.

The Valpo show is small, but it is a great opportunity to get feeders at a good price and you always have some quality breeders there such as Darla and Casey, Brian Kollwitz , and a couple of others.
Casey is right, the Indy show is bigger and I have done very well the times that I have set up a table there. You will find a bigger variety of breeders at the Indy show.

I have not
been to the Indy show since April 99' , but they always had a good turn out, frozen feeders from Brian Hahn, were very cheap.. I could buy Jumbo rats for a buck a piece.. I will be coming to Indy for my daughters Wedding at the end of this month.. Could anyone tell me the date of the next show!!! Thanks Mike

Didn't there also used to be a show in Ft. Wayne? I haven't seen it advertised anywhere so I'm assuming it closed.
Thank you to those that have replied.

Are any of you going to be at the Valpo show on the 27th? And also with the lack of responses should I assume that the Ft. Wayne so has indeed been permanently closed? I know it seemed to be dwindling.

Ft Wayne and Valpo
I personally have never been to a show in Ft. Wayne. That does not mean that there never was and still is not one there. I just have never been to it. It is a little farther than I want to drive from the Cincinnati area. I have never been to the Valpo show either. Indy is almost 2 hours from me. Valpo is farther and I've never made the drive. So what I guess i am saying is, No I will not be in Valpo this weekend. I probably will be in Indy though.
