>>Just got this from PIJAC. I knew about it, but didn't realize it was a proposed ban on ALL in the Genus Python. I believe that would include Ball Python's, unless they've changed the nomenclature recently. With Ball Pythons being nearly half the market, I don't see how that will ever fly. Maybe I'm wrong.

Well, the bill proponents are probably thinking that by including
the entire genus, worst case is that they will have to "compromise" by allowing the small species like balls and angolans. In that case, they will appear to be negotiating in good faith.

Just my speculation.

Thanks,
Ed
