The chameleon guys setup with the videos of each animal is genius. it shows that they know each animal they have and produce. They clearly take the time to really take care of and get to know each animal. THAT is what we need more of in the community. So glad they were there.
I agree! Im a hobbyist breeder, so i only produce like 2 snake clutches a year and believe every baby is well handled by myself and my 4 year old son so they end up being great pets plus we know the personalities
The 2024 Schaumberg show was the first NARBC I've been to, as well as my first solo trip out of state. It was a great show, and it was amazing to meet everyone.
22:44 her laugh sounds just like my half sister. She has such a unique and infectious laugh. She lives out of state and I haven't seen her since 2018 for my dad's funeral. I miss her and my other sister and my mom and their kids.
I do t always enjoy expo vids. Probably because of much I dislike filming them for my part. But I’m glad I stayed around for this one. The Mexican garter was really cool.
Man. Another event I was planning on hitting up but didnt due to life stuff and wish I did. Looks like a blast! Schaumberg ive only been to for a short trip before and its pretty awesome, not far from Tinley really. Thanks for showcasing it Dav!
Schaumburg always has an amazing expo along with amazing reptiles. I been there few times I've gotten alot of beautiful animals from different cool vendors
Maybe too small a show, but would Tucson make it on your schedule ever? I only recently discovered the reptile community, and it’s the only one I’ve been to, but I love to live vicariously through these videos. Thanks for putting out great content!
Cool vid Dav, as always. Mad respect for hobbyists that diversify bloodlines. Sometimes people should do whatever they can to achieve this including different localities, integrades, and even hybrids'. I can think of a few animals that will likely disappear from the hobby in the next decade.
Great video Dave. Anybody have suggestions for an iguana harness? My boy has outgrown the ones which are readily available in stores. Spines on his back are generally an issue with cords. Am I looking at buying leather to make my own?
Would it be possible to add a metal ring, like having the cords attach to a ring that you slide onto a spine? Maybe like a keychain- big ring for the spine, small chain connecting to cord (maybe with loops and spring-based clips to easily attach them), so the cord isn’t worn down by the spine? Or am I imagining the wrong problem related to the spines? Maybe you can find a bigger harness online?
That's cool Exotics unlimited or whatever the guy you're just interviewing and kind of the beginning that does everything it's pretty cool because I'm buying a basically a purple bird eater I think from him if not I was looking at something similar some type of x n e n species it's like the prettiest bird eating is not the Goliath birdeater they consider any tarantula over 8 in to be a bird eater nowadays the males are black with purple carapace and legs and the females are all black with the purple carapace
I breed Panther chameleons and I kind of understand why he says cuz it depends on their mood because when stressed they go darker but really honestly it has more to do with temperature because if they're colder than they're going to go darker and if it's really warm in there they'll be like the lighter vibrant pastel what you guys call fired up and if you're like me I handle my chameleons every day and they've never shown signs of stress they've always lasted at least 5 to 7 years I get mine from camouflage creations and I don't want to say how you really spell it because I hate since Brian barczyk blasted that he got him chameleon from there and now they can't f****** keep them in stock and that was my little special best freaking place to get chameleons
Absolutely love the panther chameleon guys' set up. Amazing showcasing and marketing on their part! So fun and engaging

That booth is beyond perfection! Proof you can dream it, do it, smash it!
You are so positive Dav! That's why we all love you!!
Thank you! :)

That first boot was so cool that purple Lizard was insane
Wow, those kids with the chameleon booth have a bright future. Their presentation skillz are on point. Stunning critters, too.
Oh wow the chameleon guys are local to me! I live literally 10 miles away from Louisville lol
22:44 her laugh sounds just like my half sister. She has such a unique and infectious laugh. She lives out of state and I haven't seen her since 2018 for my dad's funeral. I miss her and my other sister and my mom and their kids.
Found a melanistic Chicago Garter a few weeks ago. My coolest find yet
Been thinking of adding a chameleon and these guys are who I'm buying from!
Holy moly those are some really loverly reptiles. Absolutely gorgeous. Have an awesome Saturday dāv

This format was the best. I like all your videos (take a minute to verify…). But this was next level. Thanks!
I do t always enjoy expo vids. Probably because of much I dislike filming them for my part. But I’m glad I stayed around for this one. The Mexican garter was really cool.
The panther chameleons were so beautiful!

Albino chubbies are in the UK too. Saw them about 6 months ago locally.
Would love to see a reptile room tour of your own collection Dav
Those chameleons are beautiful
What a show!
Thank you Dav!
#RattleOn

Amazing picks, and lovely to see Cat making a cameo. ❤
Oh and I love your channel dude! You’re probably one of my favorite reptile UA-camrs out there.
Tanks Dav
what a video thank you Dave
I had my Dav Kaufman shirt and I was asked if I work for you taking videos for your channel lol

Great video Dav!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome Dav!
Thanks!
Hey Dāv, go back and pause your video at 13:15 and watch between the snakes necks on his finger.
Hey Dave nice video. Was hoping to see you at my first show as a vender but maybe next time. Keep up the good work.
Next time!
Absolutely! These shows are the best. So much to see.
Petition to see more Barron's Racers. ❤️
Any idea where to find those gecko toys? A link or something? I didn’t know I needed one till now but I need them!!
The chameleon booth should have won best up and coming breeder/best booth! I swear those used to be rattle on award categories
Am I the only one that noticed what looks like a mite crawling on his finger at 13:15 in to the video. 🙈🙊
Chubby frog travel more than me like ever😂
Great video Dave.

Did he say “blurple?” 🤦♂️
If Cat is your spirit animal, hit the like! 😛
Look at those prices,it’s no wonder the reptile market crashed..
$450 for a red sided gartner snake? You gotta be kidding. Are they really that expensive?
This guy always having pretty girls around, wonder his intentions. LOL
