I left out that I have 1.0 thayeri king, 0.1 cali king, 2.0 jungle carpet pythons, and 0.1 redtail boa.
There is no license required to keep non venomous snakes as pets. (Venomous require a Florida FWC VR permit). If you are planning on selling any offspring now or down the road you will need to obtain the Florida FWC License to exhibit/sell reptiles in order to do so.
