If you only patronage one show this month, it has to be Muncie! We have a HUGE lineup of vendors, and this list will continue to grow up to the day of the show!
We have vendors coming from all the surrounding states, and then some! With a wide variety of critters, just not Ball Pythons and crested geckos. Nothing wrong with those, but most shows, that is all you see anymore. We strive to bring you the largest variety in the state!
Our show offers 150 plus tables of vendors, free ample parking, low admission price and an opportunity to interact with exotics from all around the world!
Our VIP hour has become a hit. With a lot of vendors doing discounts, BOGO’s and other incentives.
Starting at 9 am and lasting until 10 am when general admission starts.
Here are our vendors for the January show. Like I mentioned, this list will grow! If you do not see your name on it, and you want to vend, please contact me here via PM or you can call/text 317 690 1614.

UPCOMING MUNCIE SHOWS
Our next show in Muncie is Sunday January 21st. We have a good number of vendors already signed up for this show. With a 20,000 sq ft venue, we can always take in more!
Last January’s show broke all records in attendance! Going to try our best to break that record with the next show.
The March Muncie show is going to be our very first 2-day show! Saturday March 22nd and Sunday March 23rd.
Vendors can rent tables for both days or select a day that suits their schedule. Both days is the same rental amount! In other words, rent one day, get the second day for free!
I’m super excited about this show, and it is taking everything I have to keep silent about some expects of the show. I promise to let everyone in on the secrets as it gets closer to the show dates.
In the meantime, if you want to join us, please drop me a line, and let me know what shows you would like to vend. Everyone is welcome!

Indiana Exotic Pet Expo/Lebanon
Creatures of the Night Exotic Animal Auction

UPDATE

Hate to make this statement, but I am canceling the shows on Sunday. Due to lack of participation of vendors. I do not want to put on a subpar show.
I was hoping to make Lebanon as large or even larger than our Muncie show. It’s in a perfect location, and the venue is amazing. But without vendor support, we simply cannot continue doing a show there.
I hope you understand my decision.
If things change I will re address future shows at this location.

Creatures of the Night Exotic Animal Auction

UPDATE

Our very first auction is coming up this Sunday at the Boone County Fairgrounds in Lebanon.
Auction will start at 4 pm and will continue as long as it takes to get all the animals through!
I’m sure we will have a few hip cups…. Being our first one, there will be a few kinks that will be needed to work out in the process.
I will have quite a bit of animals I will be running through the auction with NO RESERVE! This means the winning bid gets the animal, no minimum. Other animals will have a minimum. I will have them marked as such.
Everyone is invited to take part in the auction. Very simple rules. We charge a small 10% seller charge on all winning bids, and a $2 no sale charge. That’s it. Pretty cut and clear.
Admission to the auction is $5. Customers that attend the show, will get free admission (in other words, your admission covers both events).
I will be putting together a list of everything that will be at the auction and publish it later in the week. I will also add what people will be putting in the auction as well.
In the meantime, if you have any questions, please drop them here.

After talking with all the powers that be, we have finally got the green light for our first 2-day show in Muncie!
Saturday March 23rd and Sunday March 24th
And there is no increase in vendor table rental! I will be absorbing that on my end!
You can sign up for both days or you can select either day. We will be getting enough vendors to cover the entire weekend!
This is going to be an exciting weekend and I’m sure we will have a huge amount of support from vendors around the country!
We are going to plan for some exciting things so stay tune for future announcements!

12/03/2023

It's that time again. Imported CB Caiman Lizards are in. I've been working with this species for over 15 years now. Pretty much got it down to a science on their husbandry.
To bad they aren't captive bred here in the states. Maybe one day someone will figure it out. If you have an interest, I'm happy to share my knowledge.

12/02/2023

To spend more time and energy on my larger shows, I have given a few of my smaller ones to my son, Nick.
His very first show is coming up this weekend in Terre Haute!
He has a full venue! Looks like he’s got a winner on his hands. Here is the flyer. If you are in the area, stop by and check it out.

11/28/2023

Update:
Lebanon Show/Auction
Pretty much got all the details worked out for the 17th.
Curious, who is all going to come to the auction? Is this generating some interest?
I think it is going to be fun, but I need to know if it is actually going to attract customers.
So, if you wouldn’t mind just dropping a note, saying if you plan on participating or not, would greatly help me plan for future events.

11/23/2023

I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving.
Me and the dogs are going to lay back and enjoy a relaxing day at home, watching some movies.
I’ve been working on some ideas for future shows, and can’t wait to share them with you!
Until then, eat lots of turkey and tell your family you love them. You can’t say it enough.

11/22/2023

SINCE THE SHOW SUNDAY I'VE BEEN GETTING A TON OF TABLE REQUESTS! VENDORS DROP ME A LINE IF YOU WANT TO RESERVE YOUR TABLES FOR JANUARY!

Upcoming Shows

Lebanon December 17th.
We will be having a live auction at the end of the Lebanon show. I’ve hired an auctioneer and his company to run this auction. Vendors are welcome to participate. I had enough interest to make it more than just Ball Pythons! As details unfold this week, I will post all the information about the auction. If anything, it will be fun!!

Shelbyville December 31st!

FREE SHOW

To show my appreciation to all my customers and vendors, I am going to cover all the expenses of this event. Vendors can vend for free, and free admission for all the customers.
Let’s go out with a BANG! I’m working on some ideas for the show. Maybe a Potluck? We’ll come up with something to make it special.
