I go to Hamburg a couple of times a year. I think it's still good, although in my opinion the tortoise selection is usually not as good during the winter shows as it is at the August show. Usually more captive born babies and imports at the late summer show.

Are you going to that show, Gary?

Matt, how far is the November show in White Plains, NY from you?

I would like to go if I can. This show is about an hour and a half from me. I've never been to it but I've heard it is often crowded.

Jeff, you wouldn't happen to have a link that you could send me to get more information, and a map, regarding this show would you? Thanks! :)

Anthony-I'm not certain if I'm going to the December show or not yet. I usually go and stay overnight so my decision to go depends alot upon other things I need to do around here.

I've never been to the Hamburg show at anytime of the year when it hasn't been shoulder to shoulder people. It's always packed!

In general a good show and usually worth going to. A very good selection of supply and animal vendors.

I do remeber that it is usualy packed im glad it still is a good show. i went to the repticon show in baltimore a few months ago wasnt worth the drive very few vendors were there. i will be there for sure. i just hope i dont get into to much trouble with the wife for buying something as you can see from my sig that i have a small zoo lol
