Thats 24 hours a week . . . 7 months a year . . .

Hm... how's the climate?

cold! ok well you live in new york, so maybe not so cold for you. i'm spoiled. :P

I guess I'm glad I moved out of NY and as they say down here, you don't have to shovel heat! I do miss it though, will always be home and I'm getting sick of Florida. I have no idea what kind of laws they have regarding herps here, but they sell them everywhere.

Are there any other states that have any laws like that, or is only New York? I would think Hawaii would have some strict regulations, but I really doubt I'll move to hawaii without being rich.

Its not only NY, alot of states require or totally deny keeping reptiles of certain types. Seeing as how i'm from MD, i'd better be pretty familiar with these: http://www.dnr.state.md.us/wildlife/captive.html . Those are the regulations for Maryland. If you do a quick google search you should be able to come up with the specific laws for your state, most of the time from your state's Department of Natrual Resources website.

The rules for IL are pretty standard. No croc's without a permit, no venemous animals without a permit..etc it's what I thought the rules were, except you need a permit for constricting snakes over 6 feet. That's fine, I don't want a snake that will get that size.
