Table vendors only will be allowed to bring reptiles into the show for the following reasons:
- To avoid any walk in sales

No animals are to arrive during the show. Vendors must have all animals in the venue before the show starts. Visitors are not allowed to walk in with animals during the show.
No venomous reptiles are allowed.
This is the most important rule of all. There will be no imported animals PERIOD. This rule will be strictly enforced. This has been and will continue to be a clean show. Due to the confusion created by terms such as Captive Hatched and Farm Raised, they have been eliminated as well.
