Thousands turnout at Tampa Repticon: Lizards, snakes, hedgehogs oh my

There were hourly seminars and fans packed the hall to ask questions, handled these rare animals and even just pose for a quick photo.
Sure there were plenty of snakes and bearded dragons on display, but there were also hedgedogs, chameleons, tons of frogs, rats and millipede or two.
Lovely creatures adorned cages and containers, ranging from a $10 ball python to a rare lizard costing over $2,000 to own. Vendors and experts exchanged advice and experiences with guests and each other as the convention buzzed.
