Manatee Repticon Part 2

admin — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 13:48:16 +0000

Sorry for the delay folks! It always takes a bit of time to unwind from a show and get back to the computer

The show went very well! Day 2 brought familiar faces…people who always come by just to say hi and update us on how their new family member that they got from us is doing. It never gets old.

One of the coolest things about this particular show is that USARK was there getting signatures to stop HR669 from passing. They collected over 1,000 signatures!!! Before the show they had already collected 16,000. For those who have not heard, HR669 did not pass on April 23rd. The bill is not dead, but we have stalled them and at least our voice has been heard!

All in all, we are glad that we were able to attend the show. As always, it was a blast

Repticon Manatee show update!

The first day of the show has come and gone! Samantha helped out at ReptileSupply.com’s booth so it was a first for Martins World Exotics as the duo was broken up for the day Many customers came up to the booth for information on different species of turtles and their care so we got to do a lot of educating today which is very important to us. Stay tuned for part 2 tomorrow!

Tampa Reptile Mania

admin — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 00:40:38 +0000

Hey guys! It’s been some time now since we updated the blog but that’s because we had to get ready for the awesome Tampa Reptile Mania show that is promoted by Gila Productions! It was this past weekend (March 7th-8th) at the Florida State Fairgrounds and it was quite the success! We met so many new people and had many visits from old customers

We brought a variety of animals this time, even some that you rarely see such as CB baby Fly River turtles and CB baby Mata Matas which were quite a hit. We also expanded further into frogs this time: Dumpy Tree Frogs, Malayan Horned frogs, Fire Belly Toads, and Budgetts Frogs. We sold a trio of Argentine Black and White tegus that were to die for! The customer who got those is a very lucky man

Samantha did a seminar on Bosco, the Black-Throat Monitor. As you can imagine, many people attended and were able to take pictures with him and pet him. He sure gets all the attention.

We hope that all those who attended had as great of a time as we did. We can’t wait until the next one!
