Any snake you have after Jan 1st cannot be sold or traded if you live in NY. You either apply for the permit and keep it until it dies or surrender it to animal control. You are not allowed to buy any additional animals listed in the ban and you cannot breed any of the banned animals even if you have a permit to keep them. Once the ban goes into effect a person from NY will not be able to sell the snake to someone in NJ or CT unless they want to violate the law and risk losing all their animals.
Since the law allows for random unnanounced visits, you could possibly be nailed for selling one of the snakes.

How do you propose to move the cobra from NY when:

21 9. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF LAW, ANY PERSON WHO KNOWING-
22 LY BREEDS A WILD ANIMAL OR KNOWINGLY POSSESSES, OWNS, HARBORS, SELLS,
23 BARTERS, TRANSFERS, EXCHANGES, OR IMPORTS A WILD ANIMAL FOR USE AS A PET
24 IN VIOLATION OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION SHALL BE SUBJECT TO THE
25 PENALTY OF NOT MORE THAN FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR THE FIRST OFFENSE AND
26 NOT MORE THAN ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR A SECOND AND SUBSEQUENT OFFENSES.
27 EACH INSTANCE OF BREEDING, OWNING, HARBORING, SALE, BARTER, TRANSFER,
28 EXCHANGE, OR IMPORT OF A WILD ANIMAL IN VIOLATION OF THIS SECTION SHALL
29 CONSTITUTE A SEPARATE OFFENSE.

Wrong again Gregg M.
I think the previous post sums up quite nicely why the animal would have to be kept.
As I said before, perhaps you should brush up on the old reading skills before suggesting others might have a problem with their comprehension.

Interesting debating on that law can or is there a thread on it already? I would love to talk more about it but this thread is more about Illegally shipping and recieving a King Cobra.

Dan What are you posting???? What does that quote have to do with anything???? It is not illegal to own venomous in NY if you paperwork is in order...... You can not breed or replace them but you can get rid of it...... You are not allowed to sell or trade it ***IN*** New York....... The law as far as I read it does not say it can not be sold or traded outside of the state..... Quote where it says this.... And how can you loose animals you sold???? Like I said learn how to read the law...... This law is spacific for NY..... It has nothing to do with other surrounding states..... Youn are allowed to transport venomous as long as you are permitted.... It states so on the actual permit...... Again know what you speak of before you speak......

For my own info, has this bill in fact been signed? When is it in effect? and does anyone know where I can find factual info on it?

Gregg,....you are right...and I'm wrong. Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey Ray, It was infact signed in the begining of this month..... Goes into effect at the start of the new year.....

im pretty sure its illegal in Oregon to BUY/SELL/TRADE venomous animals....
