Great video Luke it was great to finally to meet you

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Thanks Chad & likewise!

[@scandinavian_goannas]

I would have been broke after a show like that 😁. Some awesome monitors available. Nice video, keep it up mate, always enjoy them 🤙

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Haha yeah I had my blinders on hard. Thanks mate!

[@winterblooded1345]

Cool to see both sides, vending and walking around, im considering that for next year. Great video like always and count me in for a herp sometime 😂

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Cheers mate! Was chaos doing both but getting there ridiculously early helped the process.

[@geronimo1010]

Awesome, definitely have to get over to the eastern states for these expos next year - just not enough people here in SA to warrant one 😂

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Definitely!

[@omarbakir3423]

Great impressions from the reptile show. Nice video. I would have expected more monitors. The sellers/breeders seem to focus more on snakes. And surprisingly no blotchies. Unfortunately some of the smaller skinks species (not the egernia) are not available in Europe.

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

I think there were some blotchies there but I must have missed them. Same as a few monitors. If I had more time or wasn’t vending as well I probably would have been able to film more. Our expos always tend to have a lot of pythons and beardies.

[@Cambart1]

Was awesome seeing you and catching up mate. Was a great show and sick seeing my snakes in your video 🤣

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Glad you enjoyed mate. Was great to see you too :)

[@NewbiesWildlife]

Brilliant in depth video mate. Appreciate the shout out!

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Any time mate!

[@littletonoskill7550]

Amazing to see the typa stuff at aussie expos, so jealous

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

I wish I’d filmed more to be honest. There were some great animals I missed but the day was a little chaotic.

@@BeachesScalyBeasts expos always are and still did a good job of it as far as I'm concerned

[@holisticequestrian]

So good !! Great to see for those who couldn’t make it. Definitely want to plan to make it next year! Thanks for sharing 😄

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

My pleasure 😊

[@jopayne895]

That was awesome Luke!! Thankyou so much for doing that

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Any time Jo! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@The_Slavstralian]

Those display tubs on their side (3-4min mark)were a freaken great idea.

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Sure are hey!

[@leesreptilesandaquatics6368]

You all have amazing reptiles at your expos I would love to go herping one day in Australia

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Hopefully you get that opportunity one day!

[@extremeherping]

Awesome video and thanks for the feature!

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

No problem mate!

[@IngeHoogendoorn-b3g]

Hi Luke how do I get hold of a background picture for my frog tank. It is 18x18x24. I've got 2 beautiful green tree frogs. Thank you so much for your great videos.👍👍

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

G’day! Best way is to contact either via the From Bush To Box Instagram/Facebook page or the website linked in the video descriptions on my videos. Dani or I are happy to give you a quote through there :)

[@DoorsToHideBehind156]

Are burnt cars a common sight in Australia? 😮 I'd be quite concerned seeing one just parked randomly if I was driving around on my way to my destination

[@BeachesScalyBeasts]

Not really common in big towns but pretty common through the desert country to be honest.
