I used to keep
ball pythons
Cal kings
corns
red tail boas (colombian and surinams)
burms
and a few other things from time to time but don't keep any snakes right now due to lack of time,lack of room and lack of needing to hear my girlfriend whine ;)



You ever go to Brians show in Indy? Used to head over there a few times a year but it's been a while,gonna have to make the trip this summer and see what I can find :D

That'd be the one.:D

I've got the dates somewhere around here,I've known Brian for years (from the colombus reptile show - nice guy) just haven't had the time to make it to the indy show in a while,thats usually about a 5-6 hr drive for me :(

I might hit the colombus show the 27th of this month though if I can find the time.




LoL you guys lost me, so what's this Brian's Indy Show?

Brian Hahn - runs a monthly reptile sale/swap/show in Indiana basically it's an organized sale of reptiles directly from wholesalers,importers and breeders - and once a year also hold a reptile breeders expo for sale of captive bred only animals.

royal python


First time I've seen that name used in a while,what a difference opposite sides of the big pond can be ;) over here I think 99% of people call them ball pythons now but "royal python" sounds so much better to say you have :D

this is somewhat off topic but do yourself a favor and don't buy from any shady type out of state vendors at that show and don't buy anything you think could be native ;)

If your looking for boids and pythons you'll be fine - just watch rat and kingsnakes and turtles - a few dealers have been busted lately (serves them right) couple little birds ;) say theres more people to be ticketed,fined or jailed colombus and michigan had busts and hidden video taken again last month usually indy follows.


Looks like I'll skip this show for sure now,maybe later in the year I'll make it

Yea, I am very picky! I only deal with 3 select people that I know and trust. I'm only after Boas, Pythons, and a few lizards. So I should be ok. :D
