Did my first show of the summer on Sunday in St. Robert, MO. Its not a large show, but its fun. I sold some geckos and got a lot of nice compliments from folks. Next month I'm doing a show in Peoria Illinois and I'll have a lot more leos. For those of you who stopped by to say hi, thanks. Shows stress me out, but its the easiest way for me to let people see my leos and get an idea of how nice I think they are. I haven't really been able to translate that to the web yet. Seems like building a reputation takes time for word of mouth to spread. Has anyone else done shows yet and how were they?
 
Glad it went well

I have yet to do a show and gone to so few.....
I can see how its a good thing, but many folks here notice you I'm sure:)
 
glad it went well for you mark, i have only gone to shows so far, but i'll be doing the white plains show in september depending on how many leos and cresteds i have available

good luck with your next show
 
i have not done any shows myself but i have helped kelli at a few so i kinda know what to expect.
i plan on doing one this summer in austin but with my dog being sick ($$) and the possibility of me going back to work i do not know if i will be able too... but i am going to try my hardest.
 
I'm gald it went well for you.You do have some great looking babies there....I know ...I bought one...Its probably a good thing you live too far from me for me to get to any shows you are at.My hubby is already thinking of tossing me and all my craetures..as he calls them...out

I used to do several shows each year. you're right, it is a good way to get yourself and your animals recognized. now that I am breeding again, I hope to start doing some shows next year...but I need to find somebody to come with me. it just isn't practical to try to do them solo, what with unloading, moving the vehicle, trying to shop, breaking down & getting the vehicle...not to mention a bathroom break. if you don't have a 2nd person, you have to leave animals unattended (well I suppose you could walk the animals in from wherever you have to park & eliminate that)
 
I have attended a couple shows...the biggest one being tinley park in IL, which i plan to go to again thank you very much XD

I haven't thought of setting up a table, this is our first season and i don't have a ton of breeding stock so not a lot of leos or snakes to sell.

If i do my first show will probably be Lee Watsons :)
