You generally won't find any "T" shows but very often the reptile shows have invertebrates, check the vendors lists or call.

I don't think the OP would be willing to drive 5 hours to go to the show in Wheaton. Here is a link to a show in St. Louis.

Never been to Illinois or heard of Quincy so I just did what I could. Good thing he doesn't live here in New Mexico or Texas where it's pretty much 5+ hours to anywhere lol. I have 7 hours to Mesa/Phoenix, 4 to El Paso, 12 to Dallas, 11 to San Antonio, 5 to Lubbock, 6 to Denver and that covers most of the close shows lol.
