anyone know of any invert/beetle expos in Ohio and Michigan? Do reptile expos cover inverts?

[Endereye]

I've been interested in attending an expo, but I can't seem to find any near me. There are plenty of reptile expos that come up when I search for invert expos, but I don't know if they overlap with invertebrates or if there will be inverts available there.

Invert only expos are almost non-existent in the USA. Reptile expos are where you will find a mix of reptiles and inverts. Finding stag/rhino beetles at expos is extremely rare.

Usually the most you'll find in the way of beetles is mealworms and blue death feigning but some years ago I went to a Chicago show and the beetles were amazing.

The Ohio reptile expos will have a lot of tarantulas and isopods as well. But yeah, hardly any beetles.

What did they have there?

Hercules, gigantic rainbows stags, and others. It was many years ago.
