I sell all of mine, otherwise you'd be right - the Corns would live all over the flat and I'd be sleeping in the car!
I'm in the UK and there are no laws around breeding as such.
However, there's some new European legislation in the pipeline that could have a knock-on effect. If you're transporting animals for more than a certain distance for the purposes of trade (i.e. buying or selling), then you will have to have a specially-adapted vehicle, a government inspection and a certificate that allows you do transport animals.
Doubtless all of this will cost pretty big bucks, as it is aimed at improving the commercial transportation of farm animals. However, as the legislation is currently drafted, it will apply to all animals including reptiles, and anyone buying or selling, regardless of whether the animal(s) in question are one Leopard Gecko in a tank strapped to your passenger seat or fifty Royal Pythons in a claimate-controlled van. This could severely cramp hobbyists selling at Breeders Meetings or travelling to Hamm etc. to buy new animals.

In Maryland I need a liscence from the wildlife department for any native species, and corns count. Even morphs. Technically you need it to breed, but really you'll probably only get checked if you're trying to sell.
The liscence was very easy to get though, all I did was list my animals and pay some fee ($35?). They didn't even inspect the place or anything
I got it within a few days. Haven't had to bust it out, but it's nice to know everything's above board.
Probably any local reptile shops or shows or clubs or shelters will know about local laws.
