2014 Repticon Raleigh NC Trip

Awesome Carlos! I use to live and Raleigh NC and wish I was still there so I could have gone to the show. I am hoping I can make it to the St. Louis show next year! Thank you for sharing the pics!

Thanks for nice comments Paul! I just cooked and ate something I should not; but heck it tasted good . Will eat oatmeal for dinner to counteract cholesterol damage.

After show closed; we headed out for food and good conversation. We were joined by Jane & Tom Brown from Under The Canopy Farms. Most of conversation was shop talk about shows. Learned a lot about frog show business and future plans at Josh frogs.

Imagine all are thinking... what did he got? Well I wanted to get like a couple dozen frogs from there ; reality and bad luck went against that thanks to God. Found a gorgeous healthy looking baby Ornate called a Dragon Wing by seller. One of those dark ones with red/dark chocolate hues. But since had just starting looking, kept going on and when I returned for it... found it sold .

Anyways, after paying for my five Josh's Orange P. terribilis juveniles (pics below) and a bunch of supplies, was pretty much broke . Most supplies were for setting up a few homes for darts and to care for possible Imi's froglets (have fertile eggs on glass).



They do not have the adult colors yet, but can see some orange coming out already. Also got me something else; but will keep it secret for a while .

Well, that's about it for now. Hope you enjoy thread and please do join us at shows, it's lots of fun !

He/she is awesome! So tiny! Secrets are not good, You should share it with us and remove the burden I am sure you are feeling lol! I know I will need to have some funds for a show set aside, I could see myself spending a small fortune at one of those lol.

You're KILLIN' me. This is the first time I've missed this show. Probably a good thing, I've been throwing around the idea of the bumble bee toads, they have such personality. *sigh* Maybe next time.

I'm a retired SPECOPS type and held the highest levels of security clearance Paul; secrets are no burden to me .

NO SECRETS! At least give us a hint. I'm guessing it's an amphibian?

Congrats on your new terribs
