You missed the joke about NE Texas. I consider CA the Westcoast of Texas. LOL

There are licenses and permits required in Texas to collect non-game animals. There are limits. Please make sure when you come to Texas to collect that you purchace these licenses and permits and get a copy of the rules so that you do not violate Texas laws.

Another thing about the $$$$$. I am not saying that is a bad thing. With todays economy the people that our money helps to support because of our hobby (or in some cases business)have learned to rely on it. Without the throng of herpers that used to go to W. Texas, some of those people that live there have really felt the crunch. If it were not for their support and demanding help from their politicians, we would have zero collecting rights out there.

You know something else, it would not surprise me if the most prolific breeders out there supported shutting down all wild herp collecting. Competition and provides a good argument to promote their own business. Just a thought.
