The Northwest Reptile Expo!

Today my brother, grandma and I went to the northwest reptile expo in Renton!

There was so much going on! People selling things; people buying things, raffles, shows, and so much more. I had a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed the experience. Not all of the animals being sold were reptiles; there were things like rodents and insects (as food for the animals), amphibians, arachnids, and even a few kittens! Here is a small peek at what was being sold:

Habitats, AKA terrariums:

Snakes of course!

Isn't this a beauty? I think it is a burmese python.

I wanted each and every one of these snakes.

 And lizards:

That's a lot of lizards!

A beautiful blue lizard. I forget the name...

There were lots of tortoises and some tiny, tiny turtles:

These guys are so small that they are in betta tank!

There were lots of bugs, such as mealworms, crickets, cockroaches, and whiteworms:

And some arachnids, like tarantulas and scorpions:

I like spiders, even though I am afraid of them. 

Jasper wanted to buy this one, but we knew mom would not approve.

As well as mice:

There were also some juvenile Betta fish, which surprised me:

And Bengal kittens, which surprised me even more!

The animals that I happened want most were an adorable baby corn snake:

Bearded dragons:

Babies...

And adults.

Axolotls, which are aquatic salamanders:

These ones are babies. I have wanted some for ages now...

And this baby crown tail Betta:

I settled for the Betta, as it is the only one of these animals that I actually have the proper tank for. Since Tesla passed away, his old tank and heater have been sitting around, unused. I'm sure if Tesla were still around, he'd approve. :)

Here's a better shot of the little guy, fondly named Spud. He is my first baby Betta.

I want to thank my grandmother, firstly for buying Spud, and secondly, for taking Jasper and I to the expo even though she is terrified of snakes.

Have a great day everyone!
