I have some questions about the class iii permit for Florida, hopefully there are some holders on this forum

I'd like to get the permit so that when I breed I can legally sell my animals to my local pet shop so I know they will go to a decent home and I won't get the craigslist crazies at my door. My breeding will be at the hobby level at best 1-2 clutches per year and only 1-2 litters per hedgehog if that, depends entirely on health, weight, and overall well-being. My collection is bigger then my breeding plans pretty much everything I make selling babies would go directly back into food/habitat for the rest of the animals.

I feel I meet all the necessary requirements of knowledge and caging requirements my questions come in with the disaster action plan. Technically my facility will be my house and my emergency action plan would be to close down my hurricane shutters. the house was built in the 60's and can stand up to most things nature can throw at it. If there were to be a fire that would require me to relocate i can take them to a friends.

but for ball pythons red tail boas and hedgehogs chemical capture equipment and physical capture equipment and have to post the emergency plan on my wall where only i could see it? same goes with other documentation they want to be available at the "facility"

and for the vet does that have to be a vet that actually knows me and/or has treated my animals before or can I list my local clinic that treats reptiles? I haven't needed a vet yet so I don't really have one on speed dial

does anyone else have a permit that maintains the "facility" at their house?

Thanks for the info
