..."The funny part is that I don’t keep burms right now ( I have in the past), but all of the researching and looking at pics (I’ve been lurking on the burm forum for a few years now) just made me want to get back into them."



As much as I liked them I decided 15 years ago to get out of burms for something smaller. I hadn't planned to go back and would probably have to get a divorce to do so but if the ban passes I'm seriously considering it. Just seems like the right activist thing to do everything within the law to defeat the intention of any ban.



So if they have given up on the legislative avenue and go the rule change route will instate possession and transfers still be legal? How much warning would there be before something goes into effect? Maybe Kingsnake could donate a forum and database engine to start a survival plan signup for every morph of ever species banned to make sure we have a sustainable population in each state. Sure we might have to give the babies away at instate shows but it would be worth it. I got to believe the tide is turning and that shift in power might have closed the democratic door for the Restrictors and explain their new bureaucratic route. Even if the rule change goes through I would expect a chance to get it reversed in 3, 7, or 11 years. We would just need to work together to be sure we don’t loose anything permanently through the bad years.
