To be in possession of them, regulated by the USDA.

If they are shipped with USPS to Cali and you aren't permitted to have them, it's a federal crime.

That's good, I don't think it's too hard to get a permit but it takes a while to get approved. If you applied you should be able to get them in a few months to a year.

They can hybridize, which is highly frowned upon. Also, I believe the Madagascar Hissers are appreciably bigger meaning that they are more dominant over the Halloween Hissers
