Peter Clausen Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 How was it? I've always wanted to go. I wish somebody had a photostream on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
カブトムシ Posted October 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 It was fun! They had lots of roaches for sail, a few live dynastes granti, and some live stick insects, plus loads of turantulas and spiders (whipspiders and vinegaroons too!) As for dead insects, they had tons. This one guy (who I bought an Odontablis luethneri from) showed us his cool collection of colorful, sparkly, weevils. The had very large dorcus titanus for 80$, but I bought a smaller (but still big one) for 8$. They had lucanus cervus, and some other cool stag beetles too. I especially enjoyed the dead Dynastes Hercules and Titanus Giganteus. They were really cool. It was very fun and I'll be going next year!

Ometeo Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 I was there as well, great little fair, I do this every year since it is where I first started vending. Anyhow, it is a great fair for the collector of dried goods and supplies, but it has grown as far as the live inverts offered. To clarify on the previous comments, I saw the D. granti there, but they were all males, and I did not see any stick insects, who had those???? Bob Duff was there with the largest D. granti male I have ever seen, initially I thought it might have been D. hyllus, but it was granti indeeed. ill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
