[ILoveTortoises2]

HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Both of us will be leaving B.R.O.K.E LOL.....
I live in Mansfield, Ma... This will be my FIRST time going and I'm super excited. It is only an hour and 40 mins away from here. So that isn't bad at all. I wish it could come faster. I can't wait to go. I'm going to get some stuff I need to their enclosures and I'm also hoping they have some female Cherry Head's there too.
Where are you from???

 

[IBeenEasy]

[ILoveTortoises2]

LOL You got that right.. Mass ppl love cute torts.....
They are all just to adorable for words if you ask me
Oh and your not far from Mansfield. I'm actually trying to find a place out that way. Franklin, Bellingham, Milford ECT.

ive never been to mansfield...do you guys got any good pet stores out there? theres nothing good here at all!!!... i troop it to n.h. and v.t. to go see the real pet stores loll.... how do like mansfield..im guessing its just as boring as it is every were else in mass? loll

 

[ILoveTortoises2]

Yeah VERY boring here. I'm moving because I need a bigger place.
But there isn't much out here so that is why I can't wait till the expo to stalk up on the items I use

@Jay...That is near Franklin right? I can't remember lol sorry

 

[IBeenEasy]

lol for us tort keepers i think we all constantly need a bigger place lolll thats how i feel.. every week im thinking about building another tort table or what not , that also helps with the major cloud of bordness that follows us here in mass lol...and jay your home town is right next to mines! good to see another tort head from mass!!

 

[ILoveTortoises2]

LOL Your just like me I'm ALWAYS trying to change the enclosure OR trying to decorate it. I can't have something the same for so long I get bored with it LOL
So yeah I'm thinking of making a wooden enclosure that has plastic for doors making it easy to get in and out of it

I went a couple years ago for the first time and was really disappointed at the selection of torts....only 2 vendors had torts It was 80% snakes. I do want to go again, but I'll be out of town!

 

[ILoveTortoises2]

Oh no really? I hope this year there is better and there is more torts.
Exceputally Cherry Heads
I have really started to LOVE Cherry Heads they are so beautiful.....

My nineteenth birthday is 9/29 so It's the perfect excuse for a birthday present, and time is have a little spending money, thankyou so much for posting this thread I always miss out on expos!!
(i say depending on health because I have liver cholestasis and my daughter was due Sept 20th but may come anytime from next Friday til Sept 6. So who knows what'll be going on then. I'll make sure to update though

I am also from Mass, I lived in Sandwich for most of my life, and wish I could go but I live in CO now so I can't make it haha, not that I can afford new tortoises right now anyway lol.

 

[ILoveTortoises2]

LOL @ JJ

@MamaTurtle you can't bring your child? I'm bringing my children they are going to LOVE it too.

 

[redfoot_mama94]

Oh no i can but only as long as I can convince a friend or their father to tag along, he isn't as into reptiles as me :b my son is three and im sure he would have the time of his life! He loves turtles (any turtle, tortoise, terrapin he don't really differentiate yet) best, but lizards and 'nakes' fascinate him!

glad to see every one from mass post on the thread!! i was starting to think i was alone up here!! i hope all of ya can make it!! && i was already expecting that it was going to be mostly snakes...mass is the home of the N.E.R.D. company...and nerd is one of the biggest ball python breeders in the world it seems...i wish they would have torts! but i love seeing any animals really! but it would make my day to see some torts there!!! a whole bunch of torts would reallly make my day!!

 

[coreyc]
