The bit about kids getting a new appreciation for reptiles and animals in general from getting new pets at reptile expos was so true for me. My dad took me to local expos while I was little and we always left with something. I think that’s what started me down this path.
Same! I remember my first expo my dad took me to when I was 11 and got my first albino corn. Sadly my step brother let it loose but have been hooked since. Now I have a gray banded king and can't wait to grow my collection!
I love your interaction with the other reptile RU-vidrs that I have gotten to know via Snake Discovery. It's good to see you with Emily and Brian and pretending that you don't really know each other. That makes it feel like you really are family and besties. 💖
This is a very cool view at Tinleys, some of the animals are stunning! And I LOVE the Barrels, awesome idea! Btw, Jessica and Bruce from the Reptarium sneaked into your video in 1:36, they were in Emilys video as well ;) And Greetings to Brian Kusko, so nice of him to say that he is your biggest fan 😂 Rattle on, Däv! 😋
I love the reptarium!!! Sadly because the local mom and pop store closed a few months ago y'all are the only place in the area that sells live feeders😭 makes one tempted to open their own reptile store in Denton county.
The poop penie reminds me of the bird poop knife my family had. We had a parakeet and cockatiel and we used the knice to scrap poop off of perches. The knife was labeled so it wasn't used for anything other scrapping off the poop from perches. No to be confused with the poop knife from reddit.
Those were some pretty cool paradox’s . It looked like there was some other really cool stuff. I seen some spilotes and i think i seen some indigos there too. Both those are super bad ass species that i would love to have but are fairly hard to find here in the UK.
Wow thats crazy! Literally like 3/4 days ago i was cleaning out a viv and i thought to myself “i need a scraper to get this solid crap off” then boom! A guys just brought some out.creepy. i need to get a set of those.lets hope theyr available in the uk
MANNN OHHH MANNN! ! ! ! MIKES SET UP IS DOPE! ! ! I really like how he sets those tanks up and on top of that. They're custom designed tanks. Not only does it look dope inside of the tank. SHOOOOOOOT, THE TANK IT SELF IS SICK AS HELL! ! ! ! You should definitely do another video going to his place and going through his set ups. SUPER DOPE SET UPS! ! ! ! OFFICIAL! ! ! OFFICIAL! ! !
Great award picks. I especially loved those incredible displays at Mike's Monitors. I loved your interactions with Emily from Snake Discovery as well as with Cataleah. Cataleah was one of the first reptile RU-vidrs I found, and it was through her that I was introduced to you and so many of the other amazing reptile people I have since come to know and love. Thanks to all of you for filling this Canadians dreams with the most amazing creatures on earth! #tinleyNARBC2021 #davkaufman #snakediscovery #cataleah
Was so awesome meeting you at Tinley! Dav is a legend and a great spokesperson for the reptile industry. My girlfriend loves her star wars chameleon tshirt!
oh wow so many awesome reptlies and People! I need to go to one of these one day :) I just started with the reptile hobby and have a little Gargoyle Gecko and i Love it
This looks so awesome! I used to go to the Halloween trade show in Saint Louis every year. Imagine this show floor, but it’s all large halloween and haunted house props.
Great show! Great best alligator lizard!! Never seen before really cool! Yeah way to short why dont they have it like Friday Saturday and Sundays!!!!??? Good tunes be cool to see Emily in some cool Go go boots long ponytail and on a Gogo box jammin it! :-) Rattle on! And hit that Cow Bell!!
@@davkaufmansreptileadventures been watching them on RU-vid for a couple years now I'm really into their hybrid projects they make crazy super balls , angry balls, super angry balls and I'm super into those projects trying to get into them myself for my own personal stuff
Very nice arboreal alligator lizard. Very nice that young children get into reptiles with such enthusiasm too. Also very funny how you pretended you don’t know Snake Discovery. I once thought maybe don’t you know each other?
I need 15 of those redline products right now, please. (I dunno how I missed this booth oops). I saw you at Tinley and I bought one of the shirts you were selling! Didn't say hi though because I am awkward.
One of these days I’ll be able to go to this show. I live in Florida so the first step is going to one here🤣😂 Dav, I love your choices for the awards! 🐍❤️🐍
Hey Dave....great stuff as always. Never been to TP as I now live in Bucks County north of Philly. We lived in Mt Prospect Hts,I'll near Arlington Hts and Des Plains. Best part of the show.....Robyn,by far. I'm going to buy every bloody tool he's got man. Ingenius...and Robyn is why America is so great,innovative snake $#itt scraping tools. Be great if he added snake hooks too. Only one thing Dave,can you ask Robyn if he has all his stuff in camouflage? 😊😊😊😊
I miss the Tinley show .. when I lived in Indiana 8yrs ago would always go to Tinley now living in Virginia I dont get to go 😪 wish Virginia would have more shows .. slim pickings here anyways great video 👏🏻🍻👍🏻
I have a dream to go to Tinley since I found out about the show in the last 4-5 years. I live all the way on the west coast, so I’m not sure about buying something and I’m not sure how I’d get it back.
Best part is my birthday is October 8th so seeing as I am only a year or 2 into keeping reptiles this next one I will be at 100% as my birthday gift ! To myself
@@davkaufmansreptileadventures that is officially my favorite birthday wish ever I absolutely love what u do I watch u everyday but most people don't respond back so I don't always comment but I'm so excited to go to Tinley next year I will make sure I go see u keep doing what ur doing man and rattle on
Great video👍👍 sad there is never any of the less common Uromastyx at these expos except the one went to with the orange flavifasciata uromastyx. But your videos are always great.
@@davkaufmansreptileadventures I know it's sad. Have you every heard of desertgemherps Mike Rodriguez is a breeder of many uromastyx species, he lives in California. Check him out on Instagram. It would be cool to see you do a video of his collection or there is verrazzanoreptiles in New York who also breed many species also on Instagram. If you are ever interested. Have a great weekend.👑😎👍👍
very surprised those Spencer's Monitors didn't win best lizard, its unheard of to see them for sale in the US, so few people work with Spencer's and Perenties in the states
