    PYGMY ANIMALS! By pygmy, I mean they can live in small tanks, 5 gallons or so. Especially in the city. People in apartments don't have space for snakes and stuff, we want tiny, cute, easy animals! I would say tarantulas, but they're illegal in NYC anyway... :'(

    Cool

    I'll second the Pixie frogs and add Giant African Millipedes to the list. By the time they caught my notice, they were banned from sale. At least it is my understanding that they were.

    But I only want to see ANY of the animals we are listing sold at responsible pet stores.

    Tim, you can still buy them just no importing

    I would like to see more HEALTHY feeders of all kinds offered up. Not that I need them very often, but when I do it sickens me to see prepacked crickets with more dead than alive, FFs in moldy containers, tumorous goldfish, etc.

    Exactly what para said. You need to google reptile shows near you. I didn't look to see where you all are from, but I would think even if you have to have a exotic pet license you would still be able to purchase some of these animals. We have 2 shows within an hour and a half of us and we are literally a spec on a map town. Lol.

    I think inverts of any kind should be sold more often, as well as more species of small fish, such as darters and freshwater gobies. I'd include anything in the list that people are less likely to throw away when it reaches adult size.

    Im in salesville. A spec between zanesville, and cambridge. Pittsburgh is about 2 hours, and columbus is about 1.5 hours. Never been to either of the reptile shows though.

    Oh you should go. Pittsburgh is better than the one in cleveland. Id like to go to columbus eventully. We drove down there to pick up my female b. Smithi last fall. 3 hours.
    The shows typically have some arachnids. Its worth looking. I have got many deals at the shows.
