You can own non-venomous snakes that are not indigenous to GA, and you can own venomous snakes that ARE. So, no corn snakes in GA.

Thumbs up Michigan

You can own native herps in any number as long as you can prove they're CB, and you can breed them as well, or if you've taken them in relation to the Michigan collection rules, which are also very lenient. As far as my research has shown, you can own pretty much everything else. (You have to have permits for hots and crocs, but if you're going to get either of these you've probably done the necessary paperwork, training etc.)

I live in PA and I have to say it is the best. I have several large boas, 2 alligators, and a single hot none of which require a permit or anything whatsoever. Scranton isn't a good choice though. Not a nice area. Move someone into the suburbs on Philadelphia. Definitely some of the nicer areas of the state. Just in case you haven't moved yet.

The only state laws on reptiles I can think of consist of a few native endangered species that you can not keep and venomous and all that takes is a non commercial breeders license for native and exotic venomous. Now some city laws are a little stricter but that just depends on the city you live in.

Does anyone know of any laws prohibiting constrictors such as red tail boas or green tree pythons? I've searched online and found nothing. Just yesterday a mans house was raided here in Washington state because of suspicions of venomous reptiles. When they searched his house they found a total of 40 snakes and 34 of which were venomous, he did have a reticulated python and a four foot alligator. He didn't have a license for the venomous, so I think that's why they took the non venomous as well. If anyone knows of any laws in Washington State it would be much appreciated to hear your comment, or even a suggestion where to look. I'm going to try fish and wild life.
Thanks,
Levi V.

Levi,
Check out Dept of Fish and Game or Fish and Wildlife.
I know that certain species are banned completely for owning like crocodiles /alligators and several species of monitor lizard. ALL venomous species native and non require a permit. This was the law at the beginning of 2008 but it may have changed.
Depending on what you own it's not just state laws you have to worry about.

Don't choose CA. Horrible laws here and some city laws are even worse then state.

Montana however doesn't have any regulations that I know of.

remove dealaware from the list, they just changed the regs and unless you want to pay for each snakes and not breed( every 3 years and this means renew too) you can't breed I am looingnitro a sale permit but it limits to smaller snakes for breeding no redtails or larger types ( you need a acreditted zoo permit for that and i bet it cost big bucks) if i knew i could do it i move to either PA ( boon docks) or to the carolinas right now since out side 1 corn adn a balck rat my snakes are all non native to united states . and i looknigo t rehome some later on once it warms up i think.

Washington laws

As far as the python issue. The new laws in washington, require any snake cappable of reaching 6' or more, be permited with the county. Unfortunatly that does include ball pythons and a lot of colubrids, even though i have never seen a 6' ball, but that is the new law. They are getting very strict, and starting to crack down.
