Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Captive Hatching/Breeding
I've seen a few times on here and elsewhere captive bred animals from wild-caught parents, or captive hatched animals for sale. Is this legal, or does one need a permit to sell them? For example, if I caught a few specimens of Oregon's native Western Rattlesnake, got them to breed, and incubated the eggs, I'd have quite a few hatchling western rattlesnakes. Would I be able to sell them legally?

That depends on Oregon's state laws regarding native species.
What I would really like to see though is for you get a rattlesnake to lay eggs.

It still depends entirely on the state laws of Oregon, which I am unfamiliar with.
Some states have little or no restrictions, others restrict certain native species, and some restrict all native species. Still others allow keeping/breeding/selling native species with a permit.
You'll just have to research the laws of your state and/or contact the Oregon DNR for the answer as it applies to you.

Clay is correct.
For example: In Ohio there are two types of permits for native species: A $40 commercial propagating license or a $25 noncommercial propagating license. Both allow you to possess and breed native species, but only the commercial license allows you to sell them.
Just google Oregon native species laws and you should find it pretty quick.

According to the state laws, there is a list of animals, both native and non-native that are legal/illegal to sell or keep within the state. In the specific example of the rattlesnake, it's perfectly fine to keep one, but illegal to sell. So then....does that translate to it is illegal to sell it within the state? Or is it illegal to sell it to someone out of the state as well?

If they are illegal to sell in Oregon, and you reside in Oregon, I doubt it makes any difference where the buyer is located, you would still be in violation of Oregon state law by selling them period.
