Meet the organisers.
We, Adam Bennett and Elizabeth Fotiadis, opened Top Snake about 7 years ago. What started out as a snake keeping hobby (we only had about 8 snakes then) turned into a medium sized business seling snakes and bearded dragons.
Adam is the genius behind the snake breeding while I focus my energies on breeding bearded dragons.
We are both passionate about reptiles and our collection keeps growing.

I'm am ex-teacher so my love is for teaching.
We started the Gauteng Exotics Expo as a way to grow the hobby and educate future keepers on the right way to look after reptiles and other exotic animals.

This year, we had talks on bearded dragon nutrition, bees, 10 best and worst reptiles to keep as pets and lots more.

We hope to grow this expo to include many more exotic animals and help introduce more people to the Exotics hobby.
