Title is fairly self-explanatory, I think.

Waldere on the glass wall of his terrarium. (He's not missing toes on his left front foot, they're just folded under.)

Sleepy anoles.
(As you can see, Gilgamesh has not been eating very well - he's a bit bony at the moment.)

One of my two African Dwarf Frogs. No, he's not dead - they pretty much always look like that.


My male Delta Fin Betta, now deceased.

Some of my fancy guppies (I have five).

I've not been to one yet, but one of the employees at the local Petsmart, Erica, invited me to ride down with her to the one in Portland on August 14th. I'm thinking about taking her up on it. I'm not likely to locally find the red-eyed tree frogs (Agalychnis callidryas (http://www.naturfoto-cz.de/photos/sevcik/red-eyed-tree-frog--_DSC9743.jpg)) I want, and hopefully someone at the reptile expo will have some. Plus, I might get really lucky and manage to snag another gecko (I really want a male Lygodactylus williamsi (http://www.bluechameleon.org/Forum%20Pics%202008/Lygodactylus%20williamsi,%20adult%20male,%201000c.jpg) and/or a female Phelsuma laticauda (http://fireflyforest.net/images/firefly/2009/June/Phelsuma-laticauda-1.jpg)).

I'll probably be at that show. XD I'm usually in a small group of people carrying enormous cameras.

I don't know if I've seen red-eyed tree frogs there, but there is usually a great selection of dart frogs. Sometimes I have good luck checking out the vendor list and cross referencing their websites. I've emailed various vendors and they've brought special stock to shows that they normally might not have. I plan on stocking up on coco fiber of various sorts, crickets, and possibly procuring more tarantulas.

Sweet! If I go, I could give you my cellphone number so we could meet up? I'd have a camera, too, but it's small and not very distinctive, not very useful for identifying me. ^_^

Sadly, my anoles would eat the dart frogs - I want either red-eyed green or American green tree frogs specifically because they cohabit well with anoles. I can find the American greens locally, so if there aren't any red-eyed greens at the show, I'll probably just get one or two of them. I have been looking at the vendor list. I'm more and more leaning toward going to this show.

I...really want another gecko or two. I've got one unoccupied terrarium, and room for another!
