Any Breeders in NY?

If they are any breeders in New York please send me your website links I'm having a hell of a time finding BP's in NY

I am not sure exactly where you are but I was told BP's are illegal in the five boroughs of NYC?

Really the why do they sell them at reptiles expos in Ny at that. I bought one in white plains last month and buying another oct13 in L.I....

thats all all new to me,cause I see ppl walking around with them as well

Dude,just go to the reptile expo on Long Island..it's Oct 13

I went to a expo in WhitePlains, NY. They sell ball pythons there.

There are a bunch in upstate. Alot of them have communities on facebook you can belong to that you can join and check out.

A big one is Corning Reptiles that have herpers, feed and all that jazz.

Many people sell tanks and supplies and such

NYC is just a tiny part of new york haha.

Balls are illegal in NYC i believe. But if you live anywhere else you're fine. Go to the expo in White Plains!

This is from the bylaws of NYC DEP :

That being said if you go to any reptile expo in NY like White Plains or the Hudson Valley reptile expo most snakes are still available...just not the big constrictors. Some breeders that go to the white plains expo are based out of brooklyn and such, so I doubt balls are really included in the ban in the city unless your walking down the street with one around your neck.


But to get to your question NY has a few breeders but not any one that has enough of a variety. like suggested above I would go to the White Plains Expo (www.reptileexpo.com) Alot of big name breeders attend like NERD and so do smaller breeders in the state. Also depending on where you are whether upstate or downstate I think the hudson valley expo now is adding a spot in Troy NY that website is www.herpnerds.com
