White Plains NY show 4/18 - geckos?

[Samajade]

Just wondering if anyone plans on being there with AFTs or leos? Been researching and researching and would very much like to get one of these guys. (Leaning much more toward AFTs at this point, but...)

Also, if anyone has any suggestions on what the best time to get there is I'd appreciate it. (Show runs 10-4.) I'm not going to be looking for the really expensive morphs - but I don't want to miss a bunch either.

Thanks guys!

Stay away from the AFT's there, I bought one last year, it definalty had to be wild caught, had worms and passed away. If your going to get an AFT get one from a breeder who exsculsively breeds geckos ie. Luxorious Leopards.

It gets busy around 11, if you want the best pick you have to get there early.

Ugh, no, most definitely don't want a wild-caught one. Even online ones though - I wouldn't have a clue who is reputable and whose, well, not. I'm so brand new to the gecko world that I'd not know where to start. I mean, ideally, I'd really like to be able to see them and handle them to pick - but I'm not sure if there are any good breeders within like a 2ish hour drive from me (I'm in southeastern NY near the NJ border if that matters).

Not sure of the rules here, but if it's not supposed to be posted publicly, if anyone has suggestions for reputable breeders, please do let me know in a PM. (Or is there a better section for me to ask in?) Will check out the one you mentioned too Bellalee, thank you!

Pat from Luxurious Leopards, he's a great guy to deal with and has top notch geckos. I have bought several geckos from Pat so you have no worries buying from him.

You could also check out JMG Reptile, they have some really nice geckos and another top notch breeder. i have bought several geckos from the two Jeffs as well. They are both site sponsors and you can access their websites at the top of forum.

Just a quick follow-up - spoke to Pat and will definitely deal with him. What a really nice guy who knows his stuff!

Thank you so much for pointing me in his direction!
