Shows & expos

Available on Adult and above. Go to Shows in the main navigation.
Shows & expos helps you plan events — reptile shows, expos, pop-ups, or private sales — and build a packing list of animals to bring.
Creating a show
Click + New show and enter:
| Field | Details |
|---|---|
| Name | Event name (e.g., "Daytona Reptile Breeders' Expo") |
| Date | Show date(s) |
| Location | Venue or address |
| Notes | Booth number, travel notes, contact info, etc. |
Building a packing list
From the show detail page, click Add animals to search your collection and add animals to the show's packing list. The list shows each animal's current status, photo, and any active health flags so you can make informed decisions about which animals are ready to travel.
During and after the show
- Mark animals as sold directly from the packing list — this updates their custody status in your collection.
- Remove animals from the list if plans change before the event.
- Use the notes field to record what sold, prices achieved, or follow-up contacts.
Tips
- Build the packing list a week ahead of the show so you have time to confirm health checks.
- Archive old shows for a history of which animals went to which events.
