NARBC in Arlington, TX

We will be representing the Austin Herpetological Society at the NARBC Show on February 17 & 18 in Arlington, TX. We will be joining forces with the DFW Herpetological Society and providing a Texas Snakes Display. We will also be manning the "Box Turtle Partnership of Texas" table. Come by and say hi.

I'll be attending (not vending...)!!!

My husband and I will be attending. We are very excited and looking forward to it. We are very fortunate it is just 20 minutes away for us. We are just going for fun. Lots of exciting vendors Bob Clark, Amazing Blue Reptiles, Bill Love Blue venture tours , Zoo Med Labs, and many exciting guest speakers.

ECO Wear and Publishing will be there with Tell Hicks. He will be puting the final touches on his latest masterpiece, 'Leatherback Seaturtle and Jelly Fish". Make sure you stop by and say helllo. Tell won't be in Daytona this year.

We are very excited about the NARBC going to Texas , hope to see you all there !

My husband and I will be there as well but wont be vending.

I would like to invite everyone to join us at On the Border on Saturday Night after the Auction. We should be there around 9pm or so and have a small group of fellow herpers coming out to join us. Just a chance to hang out and talk with those you don't get to meet in person that often.
We will be at the On The Border located on Copeland in Arlington, TX. It is less than a 5 minute drive from the convention center. If you want to come out you can get directions here: http://www.fantasyboas.com/direction.htm
Hope to see you there.

My wife and I are attending as well, not vending this time, maybe next year. We will be driving down tomorrow and staying both days. Who else from here is planning to attend?

I am sure it will be a great show, Bob and Brian and all of their crew put on a very classy show. I wish we could attend. I hope to see lots of pictures posted soon.

Well we went on Saturday and as expected it was severely over priced on everything nearly. The 1st table I went to had there albino balls priced at 5 grand each. Told me to look at all the rest at the show and I would see why he was so high. I looked at the rest and bought 6. I beat the guy up a little on the price and got them at an ok price. It was the same on albino boas and adult normal female balls which were the other snakes I went to purchase. A few of the vendors I have vended with at other shows and they were 25-50% higher at this show than the others they vend at. The attendance was good but I didn’t see a lot of stuff going out the doors but I didn’t vend due to the cost of tables so I’m not sure on sales. it was a very well put on show and we met a lot of people. Overall it was a good experience and we will be back next year.

We went yesterday and today. I have never been to the national show. I was a vendor at Bob Clarks in August here in Arlington.His tables were reasonable. I did not get a table for the same reason it was too expensive.This show had more crowds. I enjoyed meeting and seeing Amazing Blue Reptiles since I am a chameleon breeder.My grandson enjoyed seeing the Botar by 8 spiders. We also purchased a leopard ghecko. My husband enjoyed the show he is a snake person. I will probably go again next year. After the show I picked up some good deals on screened cages. I do not regret going at all.
