Money I put back in the hands of other breeders and into the economy as a whole. They are not stating they are going to take your animals away from you, they are trying to "protect" the native species.....

    I'll ask about any requirements to the letters to Erin
    Isn't info they'd already have access to anyway? I'm just asking, not poking a stick at you....

    There's a guy on Mike Wilbanks' forum that I posted this on preaching that this is a great idea. He's doing the same on Bob's forum. People keep seeming to buy it, when they don't realize, when you give the government an inch, they take a mile. The guys had a hard on for me for a while, with any debate, being a "know it all"...

    The IRS has it, but they don't talk to Fish and wildlife and fish and wild life has not real avenue for getting that info.

    Re: Kiss your hobby goodbye!!!! USFW Proposed ban!!!!

    In there bill then are commenting on the effects of agricultural areas...What is grown in the Everglades??? As far as I know most of the Everglades has been established as National wetland parks.

    The majority of agricultural producinig states do not support an evironment which any of these snakes can thrive in, let alone survive a single winter.

    Key points to consider when writing.


    Does anyone know if they are generally targeting the lowe states with this? I haven't been able to get a clear picture from my breif read throughs of the proposed legislation.

    Re: Kiss your hobby goodbye!!!! USFW Proposed ban!!!!

    Sry guys this is all about taxes nothing more. They can't figure out how to tax breeders! To many times i've gone to big shows Daytona and T'Park and have heard some of the big boys brag about making BIG BUCKS.

    Remember this for the most part is a cash Biz. Do think they all report it to the IRS?
