My husband is at a point in his career where we could end up at almost any state in the country in the next 6-18 months. He just recently got a callback from Florida. I own leopard geckos, crested geckos, ball pythons, and will be receiving a boa constrictor soon. I understand that the Boa constrictor and its subspecies are not presently banned but there is pressure to add them.

However I will be breeding crested geckos and ball pythons 1-5 years from now. And very possibly boas even further down the line provided they are not severely restricted or banned. So...my understanding is that my current pets fall under Class III wildlife since they are not Class I or II. I don't need a permit to POSSESS them, correct? However if I sell my animals and want to be totally legal I'll need another permit(Class III Commercial Permit)? Can anyone link me to this permit? So far I've only been able to find the FL permit for conditional reptiles and that's not what I'm looking for.
