I doubt that you'll find any breeders of the species that is so common in people's backyards, it simply is not economically feasible. I certainly appreciate your efforts to find a captive bred animal, but in this case you probably won't find any. If there was anybody breeding these, they would probably be sold as feeders for hognoses and other snakes.

The reason why I was asking is both to not take the animal from the wild, and second even if I wanted to I haven't seen any in quite a long period of time. If anyone could help me out in giving me some tips on where to look for them I would greatly appreciate it. they used to be everywhere but now I can't find any anywhere. I've looked in my yard and in fields and forested area around me with no avail.
thanks in advance

Simple, learn you local frog's calls, go out at night near a body of water and you can have your pick of the males.
