RULES
First, we want our vendors to have a fun and successful show. This list of rules lists things that, if not abided by, can result in legal issues. Please work with us to throw a successful show: 
   1.  All table placements are well-mapped and planned. We will try to accommodate any requests, but your table placement is final.
   2. All vendors must have signage to display clearly and correctly who they are. (Banners, Tablecloth, Signs, Placards).
   3. Please ensure your displays allow adequate space for your animals—no cramming animals into deli cups or displays.
   4. Your booth is your booth; please keep your products, animals, and displays within your space. Don’t block the aisles or interfere with other booths. 
   5. Only established animals are allowed. Quarantine your imports and ensure they are healthy and thriving. Do not bring animals that are considered too young to sell.
   6. PLEASE keep the peace: disturbances between vendors, staff, or attendees will not be tolerated.
   7. NO MITES will be tolerated. If we see or hear of animals being sold with MITES, you will be asked not to return to the show
