I might be a bit more loving of reptiles than the average person. I have a pet leopard gecko and sand boa who I affectionately call Gizmo and Mr. Snake respectively. Adam and I have been to Repticon in the past and were excited to visit again. If it comes to your area, I suggest going even if you are not in the business of buying a new pet. It is like a cool reptile zoo and is perfect for the kiddos. Here are some highlights of the visit.
Repticon
Charlotte Repticon January 2010
The Repticon (Reptile and Exotic Animal Convention) first came to Charlotte, North Carolina in January of 2009. We attended and had such an interesting time, we couldn’t resist when in it came back into the area.
Admission is $8 for adults, $5 for children ages five to twelve, and free for children four and under. It is a great deal considering it provides several hours of amusement and learning.
If you are looking for a specific reptile or other exotic pet, it is a perfect venue to meet the breeder and haggle a price. Here is a photographic journey of our experience.
