    Looking for for information! help
    I am looking for information on the legality, rules and regulations of breeding, selling and trading Ball pythons in Colorado. Do I need permits and such? Can anyone help me find information? Please and thank you!

    By the way i am looking on the Colorado Wildlife Government site at the moment.

    It sounds like Balls are legal and you don't need a permit to breed, trade, and sell. You may need a business license to sell.


    I don't know how current this is, but here's where I got the info.

    UNREGULATED SPECIES
    There are numerous non-native species of herptiles which are used for pet and hobby purposes,
    and which are native to tropical and sub-tropical areas of the world. Whereas most of these
    species are highly unlikely to establish themselves in the wild if accidentally or intentionally
    released in Colorado, the Colorado Wildlife Commission has classified many of them as
    "unregulated" [Wildlife Commission Regulations, Chapter 11, #1103, B] meaning they may be
    imported sold, bartered, traded, transferred, possessed, propagated, and transported in Colorado,
    provided that all importation, disease requirements and any other state, local or federal
    requirements are met.
    Unregulated species include:
    1. All non-native sub-tropical and tropical species of snakes, lizards, turtles, frogs,
    salamanders, and newts.
    2. The red-eared slider (Trachemys scripta).
    3. Leopard frogs (Rana pipiens) and tiger salamanders (Ambystoma tigrinum) acquired from
    a lawful out-of-state source or instate prod

    I'm not entirely sure. But I don't think you need one to sell out of your home. But I do know you need one for expos and reptile shows. But for those, you can just buy a day license.
