It just depends, really. If you don't exhibit or sell reptiles, then you don't need the $50 Class III permit. Most Burm owners already have a Class III because they are breeders or exhibitors anyway. By the way, pythons kept for breeding stock only don't have to be microchipped. Pythons kept for pets don't have to have the $50 permit, but are 'supposed' to file a wildlife 'pet ownership' free permit. People weren't doing that, hence the $100 ROC permit. If you have a vet who can chip for free, then that cost is eliminated, too.
So, bottom line, my first time ROC cost was $100 for the permit and $40 for the vet (microchip). If I was a breeder, I would only have had to pay the $100.
