Mike Shaffer reptiles... And as you can see he got real creative with the lawn care name as well. I can not believe you would not let me have that last mouse. It was all alone and calling out my name... You big meanie.

And the ever famous mankini wearer. I did hear Paul had one on as well :-)

Great show guys.

Great shots Kristy! Thanks for posting! I'm glad that Mark was not showing himself pantless! Thanks for hiding behind the tanks Mark!:ack2:

Why didn't you turn the camera on yourself?

What can I say! Creativity is just natural for me I guess!:yesnod:

I have another mouse waiting and you have no choice but to take it at the next show! I'm sure that everyone knows how much you really want one now!:thumbsup:

I try to avoid the camera as much as possible :-)

I did not get a whole lot of pic for the second room but I tried. I think I might have been too busy socializing. And answering the question.... No they are not poisonous. I am so making a sign for the next show.


I am going to name my new mousy Mike Shaffer mouse. It has a nice ring to it dont you think?

Ben and I just wanted to thank all the vendors and attendees who came out and supported the Steel City Reptile Expo. The total Customers through the door was 1,474. It was a huge success and we thank everyone for there help at making this a great show. The 2010 dates are posted on our site at www.steelcityreptileexpo.com and the next show is scheduled for Jan. 30th 2010 we hope to see everyone out at the next show for we are sure it will be even bigger than the first show. Pictures will be posted soon of the Sept 12th show and also of the lucky little girl who won the albino ball python. Thanks again to all of you who helped this show turn out to be such a great success.

Sincerely
Paul Wyble
Ben Corcetti

Take another look---do you think that's really a carpet python?????

There's a hole in the side of that tank. :eek:

Grats to Paul and Ben on the success.

I think we should put Mark in a tank, and raffle him off to some lucky young lady, Paul could get another 500 -1000 peeps for the show! Shake that money maker Vitelli! Good show! Paul and Ben, awesome Job!

the show was very good, a nice selection and lots of vendors i cant wait for the next one.. now paul get on that ball python breeding video you told me about.

LMAO!:rofl:

Just wanted to let everyone know we are accepting vendor applications at this time for our next show which is Jan 30th 2010. Also we have updated our site with a few photos of the sept. 12th show and a pic of the winner of our albino ball python give away. The show turned out to be a great success and we want to thank all the vendors and patrons who took the time to come out and support the first of many Steel City Reptile Expos. Visit the site at steelcityreptileexpo.com Thanks again Paul and Ben

I guess we will pretend this 1 is new, haha! Crazy frog lady!;)

Crazy frog lady.... You know if I had feelings they would be hurt.


:angry::angry::angry::angry:

Kristy aint crazy!:NoNo:

Guess he didn't see what happened to Dennis!!!!!!:thumbsup:

She knows I love her and her frogs! But if a beating is what I deserve, I will gladly take it!:yesnod:

Finally some one that does not think I am crazy :thumbsup: it is about darn time.


I see a beat down in Mikes future :yesnod: just dont threathen me with them little furry things again. I will run away like a sissy girl.

Hey crazy frog lady, you are a sissy little girl. You CRY every time my minions kick you and take your money. That is why I do not fear you anymore. Mike, if you need protection from "the crazy frog lady" my minions will help you out if needed. See you at the show.

I love beat downs! I cant wait!

Thanks Dennis! I can pay you in rodents, lol!

You better watch out. I heard she has been working on some "killer frog" project.... I think it's called operation get Dennis..... anyway here is my video evidence, see for yourself.....

LMAO Matt! Hows that Cinny doing for you?

Really good. He's eating F/T rats and just finishing a shed cycle. Might give him a shot at a girl late this year and see how he does.

Sweet man! Glad to here it!

I think you may have a little too much time on your hands.... :rofl:

But I def think that may scare off any one who wants to step up to the plate. Bring it on Mike Shaffer :yesnod:
