Tinley Park Reptile Show- Part 2! (What we bought!)

[@azoreaneve4777]

You're probably gonna start needing to get convention T-shirts with something like "we're really busy now, can't stop for a meet" printed in huge letters for situations like this last day at Tinley. Then you'd probably have an easier time getting what you went there to buy without having to explain to everyone that you're in a rush.

[@splendidpursuits]

Too many words. Try: CAN'T STOP. SHOPPING!

[@nelaepowt]

@@splendidpursuits how bout a period per word CANT. STOP. SHOPPING!

[@moonxhuntress8400]

Or we can make a rule that the last two hours be reserved for them to shop uninterrupted

[@geekmyths]

Also would be a good idea to announce that on like the final day of the convention, you won’t be available for pictures or meets or whatever. So that way fans know not to bother you and know to find you earlier.

[@mereldevisser7086]

Ye

[@Ditze101]

Just a suggestion for fan interactions at shows. I know you love interacting with them and you feel so bad when you can't because you have stuff you need to do. You need visual cues to show you're available or unavailable. Like, when you're wearing the things fans are supposed to search for or your Snake Discovery gear, you're available and want to chat with your fans. But when you're not, you're unavailable to fans so that you can get the things done that you need.

[@carschmn]

They should have a “sorry we are working” sign. Either that or recruit the fans to carry stuff

[@AlbinoAxolotl]

Yeah there is going to have to be some limits on the fan interaction at a point. It’s awesome that they’re so accommodating but the huge crowds they attract are going to become an issue as they become even more popular, especially as they encourage even more fan interaction. It’s probably difficult and somewhat frustrating for the people and vendors who are going to the show for the sake of the show itself to deal with hoardes of fans there just to meet the youtubers they love. I also don’t think that it’s going to be possible for E&E to do both the show for themselves and their business AND all the fan interactions without one being sacrificed and people becoming upset. Being such awesome and sweet people, I know it’s probably hard to tell people no, but the public needs some well-defined limits of it’s just going to get to hard for everyone involved.

[@DarkFlamecreator]

Even just a sticker saying "Fan meets Unavailable RN" would work. Or something like a different colored lanyard maybe

[@khills]

I imagine they’re going to have to start hosting a meet’n’greet booth - they’re at the booth, come say hi! Not at the booth/on the floor? Working. They could share it with other YTer’s, too.

[@Grace-er9ep]

They could have different cards on their lanyards, like a green one that says "please talk to me about reptiles" a yellow one that says "I'm a little busy" and a red one that says "intense work underway, can't talk right now!"

[@Doodlecream]

I always believed that hermit crabs couldn’t be bred so that’s realllllllly cool that people are figuring it out so we can humanely own hermit crabs in the future :)

Emily & Ed, expos like Tinley are your professional shows. It's where you network with fellow professionals. Having been at Gen Con as a vendor, knowing what folks in your position have to accomplish, that you do what you do to interact with fans is amazing. Do not feel the need to apologize for doing business (the fact that you do shows the wonderful quality of people you are). You might want to wear tshirts that state, "Sorry, I can't talk right now. I have to buy stuff before the show closes."

[@86fifty]

Totally support this idea - this channel is big enough, they might need to hire a PR person, honestly.

[@GryphonSoul]

@@86fifty omg you’re right! Last time I watched them they had 1.8 million subs, and now they have 2.6 million! Its really growing quickly!

[@charlenedetra2050]

Perhaps for the future of attending shows. You do a off-sight Meetup before or after a show, giving more people a chance to meet you. I know how much y'all love your fans and it sounds very stressful do greeting at the show when running last minute grabs Love everything y'all do for the community

[@86fifty]

An off-site meet-up sounds like a really good idea - becoming celebrities has got to be really stressful, gotta have some incognito time to do real-person stuff.

A tip for y'all next time you go to stock up at a show: Rent a U-Haul van! They tend to be cheaper, better coverage/insurance, and great for hauling stuff! Everytime I head to dog shows, I always rent a U-Haul van to load up dog crates, grooming tables, gear, etc.

Good to see you got some White’s tree frogs. They’re very charming and friendly and grow quite large here in Australia. We just call them ‘green tree frogs‘ here. In wet weather you can find them around houses near exterior lights, and you can tell if one outside somewhere is being threatened because they scream very loudly. Mind you, they can be a bit disconcerting when you lift the lid on the toilet and find one or two in the bowl, staring up at you.

[@prowler6435]

As someone who owned hermit crabs as a kid, I was always disappointed at both the lack of ability to breed them in captivity, as well as how short lived they were compared to wild ones. Even when I talked to other people with them, they would also discuss their very short lives. I imagine that in the future, the information I was given may end up in the same way as the old alligator books that Emily and Ed have discussed on this channel.

[@unkownuser41190]

Exactly same story with me. In January, I became the proud momma of 5 (impulse bought 3 of the 5) hognose snakes. Never owned any reptile ever in my life and nothing more than the occasional cat growing up. They're so awesome & very easy to take care of. There's a busy day ever other week when I do a full bin clean, which takes about 3 hours to do all 5 (with 3 kids to take care of at the same time otherwise it'd probably go a whole lot quicker). I 100% suggest getting one. They're awesome, beautiful creatures. I've finally stop jumping when they Faux strike too lol.

Hey Emily and Ed, I started watching your channel when you were building even though I didn't keep any exotic pets. Then when you got your inverts I freaked out because I've always been scared of spiders. However, I was somewhat fascinated and started watching Dave's Little Beasties, then other channels too. Fast forward a few months and I got my first spider (Australian giant jumping spider), followed by tiny trapdoor slings and now six tarantula slings (native old world, the only thing we can get in Australia), a wolf spider juvie and another jumping spider I found on my front door! And really it's all because of you two. Thank you for your part in helping me get over my fear of spiders and introducing me to keeping inverts. 😄😄😄 Btw here in Aus beginners have to *start* on Ts similar in temperament to OBTs!

i believe they have an employee who uses they/them pronouns, which they have always respected in videos where they are in the background (it made an impression on me since i use they/them) but i agree that with animals it would be nice as well.

If my package ever arrived, there's a PERFECT hat for you to wear in it, Emily. It's a fairly big box with a sharpie drawing of a cat on the side, holding a snake. I sent it over a year ago now, but I haven't seen it get opened.

If I had that sassy eastern, I'd name him Sozin or Ozai. He's got 'Fire Nation' written all over him.
