Yes there are breeders around the US that have "pure" Indian Pythons for sale but only to people living within the state the pythons are located in. Be sure to never purchase from outside of your state or if you are lucky enough to have someone "gift" a specimen to you and you have a signed letter to that effect, it is legal to transport it across state lines: Remember:

ONLY INTERSTATE COMMERCE IS PROHIBITED IN THIS SUBSPECIES - listed on Appendix I. In other words, no money-no problems with USFW regulations. One can move from state to state with your python as your "personal" property.

By the way Python m.pimbura for Sri Lanka was dropped as a valid subspecies years ago. If you are purchasing a "pimbura" they are now under the same regulations as molurus. You have to have the CBW permit from USFW to purchase or sell any Indian Python that is to be transported across state lines. Yes that means Seller and Buyer have to have the CBW permit.

Do yourself a favor and purchase your Indian from a local breeder and forget the permit!

They are great snakes, on the average, do not grow to excessive size and stay colorfull into adulthood.

thanks again

Good to know.. I told someone recently that pimbura now required a permit to buy over state lines, when inquiring about ones they had for sale, and he insisted up and down that they required none.. Good thing I didn't buy them. lol.

To post multiple pictures, you need to have them uploaded online, like in the kingsnake photo gallery.. You take the URL of the photo itself(int he gallery, right click the picture, go to properties, and copy and paste the URL thats there), the code to use is [ img ] URL here [ /img ] without any spaces.. Have to put spaces in there for it to show up in text. lol.
