Herp laws???

I was told today that they Changed the laws where I live at. If so I'm very worried but the guy that said it seemed like a knuckle head. Does anyone know anywhere to look/call to check for the latest laws in your area?

Where do you live?

well, i just tried a couple search engines and didn't come up with anything. maybe u would have to go to the courthouse or a local library? let me know if u come up with anything!

I may have to call the courthouse and check

Nathan, I live in Omaha Nebraska. Supposedly the law is now no snakes over 4'. I call BS but until I see its no longer 8' in writing, I don't believe it.

Its happening everywhere man. I guess its a republican thing!!!

Here In florida there passing a law that all big snake owners must have a license and have chips implaned.

Truthfully I think they should of been did this down here. Alot of amatuer owners are desposing big snakes in our everglades. Hope the new law complies to what you are raising where ever your at

Same here. if this law is in fact passed, then I'm sure there is a way for you to get around it via permits.

Thank god in FL BP's arent included in the snakes that you have to chip...at 100 bucks a year per snake..that adds up fast!!!

Florida Fish and Wildlife is who ya turn to here..dont know if you have something like that there though.... let us know what you find out!

Being a minor won't help if indeed the law was passed. I am a great snake daddy but being a minor could prevent permits.

im pretty sure that in my town any snake is legal unless it's venomous or over 10' long... good thing i don't plan on getting anything bigger than a bp! there go my chances 4 gettin a black mamba tho....:(

I'd probably buy a small building out of the city if indeed this law does pass for them. I don't think I could get rid of them ever

You couldn't get your mom or dad to sign up for a permit until your 18?

It would be possible. I would think the 3 years I have had them would count as something. Grandfathering maybe?

It's possible, however it all depends on the wording of your individual state/county laws.

They got their yahoo group back up. I asked there. I'll let you know what I find out
