Grrr, I want a corn

Ah! I've been reading up on corns and all the posts on them here, and now I really want one, but I live in Georgia :( Oh well...

man, that must really suck .....how much trouble would you get in if you had one ? do they sell them in the stores....hmm i guess not if they are illegal, sorry man that sucks big time.

haha, yeah it does suck... I'm not sure how much trouble I'd get into if I had one.... but I think they'd take it away from me at least... but it's not like anyone would know if I got one....;-) but no, they don't sell them in stores around here....

You *can* get a permit from DNR, you just have to be willing to have your premises inspected, pay the fee, and do 12 hours of education annually. Then you can have up to two of most native species.

that sucks that you can't get one but i know this one website who sells 2 albinos for $40.00. the web site is
called Alex Hue Reptiles.com

I just talked to a friend of mine, and he says that corns are not illegal, and that he's got a friend who's a herpatologist who breeds and sells cornsnakes in my town. I'm confused... hah, I'm gonna give him a call a little later today though..

get one. no body has to know
buy 1 from another state.

My brother has 2 ferrets, and those are illegal in California. Not that I'm encouraging you to break the law or anything. If there was a way to do it legally (like doing the stuff Marla said), he probably would have done that.

I just talked to him, and he breeds them in South Carolina, so technically they're not native to Georgia... or something like that, so they're legal here... but he doesn't have any as of now.. :-( Oh well, I think he may get some soon.

actually, owning any species that is native to georgia is illegal, regardless of its origin, or where you acquired it. trust me, i've looked into it, as i would like to keep corns myself. i would give you the direct text from the dept. of natural resources web site, but for whatever reason, it is down right now. i'll post it later when it comes back up again.

Mechanic, your avatar is freaking me out! :shock: :wink:

yeah i gotta agree with ya there jen.

That tongue is creepy!

yeah that's what doing it for me too i think--anytime you have a human tongue out and in action there is bound to be weirdness.

is he licking a tooth brush?

doh! Man... I was really looking forward to getting a corn.. oh well. heh, you don't like my avatar? ;-)

I didn't say I didn't like it, it just creeps me out, that's all.
:twisted:

hahaha, No, it's a guitar. It's actually the shiny demon from Tenacious D's music video of the song "Tribute."

rat snakes, unfortunately, are also native and therefore illegal.
