We were planning to go, but I've decided to purchase a Dalmatian Hermanns from Chris Leone and I'd rather put the $30 entry fees (2 tickets) towards a nice UVB instead. Have you attended this show previously? Is it any better than the San Diego Repticon show? There were a few tortoise breeders there, Tyler Stewart being a highlight. But, I found the show more geared towards snakes and lizards.

Never been to this one. Want to see if anyone on here has to see if it's worth going. Any good deals at repticon?

I go to Anaheim every year. Some years are better than others, but I'm always glad I went. I get a little disappointed when the shows are just 5 million ball pythons, leopard geckos and beardies. Those are all nice animals, but one or two tables of them would be enough.

I'm planning on going Sunday morning.

Honestly, I was a bit underwhelmed by the Repticon show. I didn't see any great deals, but at the time I was looking for aquatic turtles which were scarce. The Anaheim show looks intriguing though...

Hi Tom,
We were thinking Sunday too. Is it worth the $15 entry fee?

Only you can answer that. For me I have to consider if its worth the long drive and the gas. It is worth it to me.

I went to the NARBC in Arlington, Texas. I think it was worth the drive and ticket price. I got some bulbs and another fogger. There were quite a few tortoises there, and I got to see lots of baby turtles. I just liked seeing all the animals.

I haven't been to a Repticon yet.
