I highly advise all my friends here on the forum to double check their local city, county laws to see if the reptiles they keep are legal. It could save you a lot of the heartache I am going through now.
In Malta all reptiles are illegal due to some stupid laws. But they never really do checks so I keep 1.1 Testudo Kleinmanni (Egyptian Tortoises) and 0.0.1 Corn

I always say that it is only illeagl if you get caught. How ever since I live about 2 miles outside the Houston city limit their snake laws don't apply to me. I can still keep venomous snakes and snakes longer than 8 ft with out permits. I do know quite a few people who ignore that law b/c it is absolutely rediculous that people who have no idea about snakes get to make all the decisions about them.
I think any constrictor over 6ft is illegal in my city but about 10km away im Mississauga anything goes.
Does ayone know for sure?

here (vic bc) only vipers, and all natives are illegal. But you can get permits.
No one knows, and its none of their business what I do in my house. I'm not hurting anyone else. If they want to find out they better get a search warrant. Otherwise I don't invite anyone in.
I have know Idea if big snakes are legal in my state, i know snakes are though cuz I have bought them in pet stores and stuff, and i brought them to a local vet for heavens sakes! maybe i will check into it!
wait, i should have said for heaven SNAKES, not heaven sakes! lol :p
I think as long as you don't walk around the street with a ten footer, and watch who you tell then you should be alright.
