South Wales Herp show

Http://www.sware.org.uk/index.html A new show planned for next year in South Wales UK, it is the only welsh herp show of the year I am aware of. I have booking a table for £18 and have arranged with one of the organizers to offer cb amphibians from private sellers for sale. Due to the licensing rules only two sellers may be behind the stall, so feel free to drop some off on my table and have a look around the show. No charge will be made for this service but please familiarize your self with the show rules on animal packaging and displaying care requirements. PM me if you are interested, I have one additional seller pass for the price of £9, meaning you can be behind the stall and sell your own amphibians. I will not be offering other sellers axolotls for sale, all other amphibian species are fine.

Nice to see a local show. Not sure where I'll be in April next year but if I'm still in Bristol I'll pop across the bridge to visit this. Who knows, I may even keep you company behind the table and have a few newts for you to sell

I was just about to send you a pm about the show Mark, hope you and a few of your banded newts will be making an appearance, they would add a touch of class to a table full of axolotls and african clawed frogs lol

Also, do not forget the next BAKs (British Amphibian Keepers Society) meeting which has been penciled in for Sunday 21st April April 2013. Doors will open to members at 12pm and the venue is
St Leonards Sports and Social Club
St Leonards Works,
St Leonards Avenue,
Stafford,

I cant say Sean, the Welsh show is new so its uncertain who will be going and what they will have. The only breeder I personaly know who is going is my friend Rhys and he has loads of snakes lol The BAKS show will probably have some T.verrucosus. I will be offering the same open table to caudata.org members there and nearer the date will be starting a thread for people to show what amphibians they will be taking with them. Caudata.org has a good representation on the BAKS comitte with myself, Bellabaloo and Jane1187 on it and Ade (the founder) is a non active member with the profile name BAKS.
