I have to respectfully disagree wirh Jack. I live in Southern California and there is no way any of the 9 exotic snakes could survive here. It is a desert and it does get cold, frost etc... As far as sending them back, everytime a snake gets sick and people dont want to deal with it, they will send it back. Example a $60 snake that needs $150 in vet care. I have spent over $400 on one animal. Not only does the breeder get stuck with the problems of irresponsible owners but also puts the rest of his collection in jeopardy!

Now I could see organizing reptile rescues and supporting them but Jack obviously is overlooking alot of facts. or is just unaware of the reality of the situation.
