How do you report an irresponsible/abusive Ball Python breeder?

The sheer amount of them made me really question his entire set up. Like how bad is his breeding stock that he has 30-40 snakes with genetic defects? Not to mention the 20-30 sick or injured ones he was selling for food.

When Texas had the big ice storm and the power was out for days a few months ago a lot of breeders ended up losing clutches, or, if the clutches hatched out, all the snakes were deformed because of incubation temperature fluctuations from the power outages. If he had 5 clutches in the incubator and there was an incubation issue that could easily add up to 30-40 deformed babies. If that were the case he could have disclosed it though.

I'm surprised the vendors around him didn't complain about the snakes with RI on his tables also.
