Nobody will prosecute you for having a BP - just google ball python and san francisco.
Re: California exotic pet laws
What are you going to do if someone there turns you in for having illegal reptiles? I would find somewhere else to live if its possible.This way you do not place your reptiles lives in danger(i have heard they kill reptiles that are illegal in some states) and you dont end up losing money and your reptiles.
I dunno! Like I said before I would DIE before leaving my balls, or leopard geckos, or my spider. I will do it illegally if need be, or I guess not move to San FraN. I can move to a suburb if need be. But I refuse to let my babies go! Check them out in my picture files or whatever! Y'all can check out my MYSPACE page if you like, there are several pics of the babies there

Not true at all.I live in Illinois and in Galesburg Illinois its illegal to own ANY constricting snakes! This includes corn snakes! If you are caught with a illegal snake they will prosecute you.Why is this you say? Its because of someone idiot who liked to scare old ladies with his snakes:mad: .Now everyone else pays for it.

I would hope you would just find somewhere else to live,not doing the illegal steps.
Re: California exotic pet laws
If you google there are literally dozens of references to people keeping bps in San Fran. Illegal - yes as the link proved but unenforceable and unenforced as far as I can see. At the end of the day its a judgement call but I suspect most people would just do it.

You are missing my whole point here.Who cares what others do in San Fran,i am just pointing out if you know something is illegal why take the chance.All they need is one complaint and your reptiles are GONE and there is nothing you can do about it because you know they are illegal.To many other states to move to that are not banning reptiles.

I think the most helpful thing here would be to hear from some natives.
I'm not trying to be argumentative for the sake of it here but it just seems to me that one should consider everything whilst moving house to such a great city. A silly and unenforced law is just one aspect.

Sadly in the USA it does make sense to find out about the animals that are allowed or not allowed in certain states.Its up to the poster of this thread of what will happen and not either of us to be truthfull.
