OMG I think I almost peed my pants!! HAHAHAHA!! That was FUNNY!!!!
Okay....SO......let me see if I UNDERSTAND this............you are saying that the regulations imply that if you have a pet guniea pig (that you "possess" a pet guniea pig) that you do not have to have a permit. However, if your Guniea pig turns out to be a female and has babies and you want to SELL them, then you have to apply to get a PERMIT to SELL the Guniea pigs.....because now that you are SELLING, they are considered Type III wildlife that requires a permit??
Because let me tell you, I have A TON of people (I'm talking at LEAST a dozen personal friends) who SELL parakeets, hamsters, guniea pigs, geckos, etc and NONE of them have a PERMIT to do so.
However, if that is what you're saying....that if you OWN a ball python as a PET you do not have to have a PERMIT. But if you want to SELL your ball python then you have to have a permit.
Sorry FWC but that is the most absured backwards load of you-know-what that I have EVER heard. I am with you anatess...I am contacting FWC myself. This is bologna.
