I agree with you fully. my post below was stated in the full business state of mind. If price drops you produce your inventory to make up for the lower profit per product margin. Quality animals will always sell for more than bargain basement animals. If someone is looking at 800g pastel males, which is he going to buy, a browned out one for $650 or a bright yellow male for $800. I'd be willing to bet the more expensive one because that is what that person has to look at for several years. we have spent several thousands on animals that look better than the average to better our breeding program which in turn will make our offspring look better than the average out there. This was the investment that goes into ball python breeding, not just spending money on a male and breeding it to as many females as you can.
