Man this makes me angry and excited at the same time.

HOW CHEAP ARE ROYAL MORPHS IN AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY DOES SOMEONE WANT TO SHIP ME AN ALBINO ROYAL $450!!! HOW!!! THEY ARE TRIPLE THAT OVER HERE!!

How much were the piebalds??
Those carpet pythons looked stunning quality if incredibly cramped.
Does anyone know where there is a reptile show in the UK looks like a great thing to go to.

Up your way theres a big reptile expo in Doncaster twice a year-IHS Breeders Meeting.And beleive me,you can get albino royals much cheaper than the prices you quoted.......

We didnt pick up anything. We just went to go see and chat with fellow breeders. Made some contacts, met customers, BS'd a little, etc..

It was mostly swamped with ball morph, albino boas, and colubrids...

Its a good thing for us, since we try to specialize in turtles and tortoises, and a few rare lizards.

It was in a great venue, clean, most if not all was CBB animals.

and we got to watch a cobra snake on a albino boa at the vendor afterparty.

Thats an interesting pic to post in other forums just for affect. I to was shocked than read it had a genetic defect which you can't see in the pic thus good pic to post.
How long did the venom take to work after the cobra bit him?

yeah, and i'm not the type to post such photos, but this section of the forum has been a bit slow. Anyhow, the venom took about a minute or two to take affect..

I'm not for it... but then again, this what zoo's do to get some snakes to eat. The owner had bought a bunch of cornsnakes at "wholesale" price to feed the baby king cobras. The adult male in the photo does eat rats, but I guess he decided to switch it up since alot of people were there.
 
I thought that that was the primary diet of king cobras, other snakes. Funny what different people find acceptable as feeders and not acceptable.

It's interesting that it takes a couple of minutes to take effect (over other snake eaters like some kraits). I guess kings are pretty big though and can do enough to "entertain it" until it dies.

Thanks for the pics, looks like a cool show.
 
stunning pictures!! i like the picture with the ball pythons all cramped up in a little see thru box hahah!!
