I live in Volusia County, and can't find any within Volusia and Seminol Counties. My mother in law used to have one, and my husband would really like to get her one. I was told by one breeder that they do not breed this time of year, but a pet store told me they may have some in a couple of weeks. Any info would be wonderful. Thanks!
