I guess this thread applies more to breeders with lots of snakes, or keepers with more advanced or otherwise hard to handle species.
Assume a scenario that you go traveling and can't return home, or there is some sort of disaster in which you can't return home and manage the outcome of your snakes. If you don't know anyone locally who knows how to care for and manage or sell snakes, what's your plan? Who do you contact, or who do you tell your relatives/friends to contact, and what do would you have them do?
I've been traveling a lot this year and it just got me thinking that it might be important to have some sort of instructions for my family on what to do. And I don't know anyone local who would be able to manage my snakes.
