obviously the small time breeders with just a few pair of breeders wouldnt be affected. the big breeders with hundreds of breeding pairs, would be affected. if the snakes dont bring in money to pay for themselves (ie, food, new caging if needed, etc). they surely are not going to pay out of their own pocket for them. that is why they are in this HOBBY, is because it is a great and rewarding hobby, and it can support itself. i personally breed, not at all for a profit, all of my snakes that i sell go right back into the snake fund for food and the above mentioned. and yes, there are some in it for the money, just like any other business (including other exotics breeding, dog breedings, cat breedings, etc). explain how a ban would postively affect the breeders, the snakes, families of alot of these breeders (that employ multiple employees), and the economy
