Was doing some research on the grandfathering clause (since I'm a paranoid person and I'm paranoid that ball pythons will eventually get banned), when I came across articles about a home breeder whom from what I can tell got in trouble because he had too many snakes/reptiles in his home and was running a online business from his house. Is that illegal? It really just sounds like what all of us are doing.. breeding our snakes and selling what we don't hold back online. Do they expect an small-scale breeder to acquire a professional facility to pursue their hobbies?

Not sure if I'm allowed to link, but if you google Scott Nellis Ball Python, the articles should pop straight up.

I'm just really confused and a little shocked really, unless there's something underneath the entire story that I'm missing. I've just started out with my BP collection and am quite addicted to them, and I can easily see myself having a bunch of ball pythons at some point. It almost feels like the city isn't allowing it simply because snakes are viewed in a bad light.
