Well here are all the pictures I took at the 2025 October NARBC show in Tinley this passed weekend. Had a lot of fun BS with friends and checking out all the reptiles. Helped my friend John out at his booth to a little. I talked a lady in to get a boa instead of a ball. So that was good, one more person added to my WDB club. :rofl:

Cool looking table set up.


This is what I bought at the show this year.

I got most of the bins filled already.

I’m not familiar with the boa morphs “Nexus” and “NFI,” but hoo boy are they fetching a pretty penny. :flushed: I’ll have to look those up.

Gorgeous animals, thanks for taking so many pictures!

That sharp albino blood boa for 4 grand is insane! How much are kidneys going for these days…:thinking:

:joy:. Seriously Dennis you speak wisely! I bet a lot of people would sell a kidney for something more practical these days if possible…… :tired_face:

Riley if you can make it would be fun and nice to meet you in person at the October NARBC show. Here is the information for the hotel that the convention center is at. The dates for the October show are 9 -11. Not sure but the hotel might have a shuttle from the airports. O’hare or Midway. There are a few other hotels around the area too.

EVEN Hotel Chicago-Tinley Park.
18501 Convention Center Dr, Tinley Park, IL 60477 Phone # (708) 444-1100

PS I hope this is not braking any rules here on MM. Just trying to help Riley and anyone else interested in the NARBC show. I am not affiliated with the show or hotels.

Trying to plant the seed into the partner’s brain to go to this one :joy: I live ~2.5 hours from Chicago now, so if I start mentioning it now, I’m sure I can convince him of the adventure

The October show is the bigger one out of the two shows. The March show is very good to. I always go to both shows on Saturday as I am only about 40 minutes away. If I have boas to sell I give them to my friend to sell at his booths. Most of the year’s the October show has more boas for sale.
