It depends on the snakes and it depends on city/county laws. Best thing to do is call your city clerk, they should be able to help you out, or see if your city/town has a web-site. Venomous reptiles are different the whole way around, you need a permit from the NYSDEC's special license unit.
NYC has much stricter laws than other parts of NY state, I'm not sure if Long Island would fall under the "city" guidelines.
Good luck,
Tom

:Hi I was wondering if any body knows the NY laws for keeping snakes??? I live on Long Island I am not sure if the laws differ from upstate or NYC . Not sure of those laws either.
:Thanks
