I like the Kahl and Sharp strain both equally. They both have good traits and are worth having.

I also think that the prices droping is a good thing. Yeah, I know that a lot of people paid big bucks for their animals a couple of years ago...I feel really bad for them, since the price is droping so drastically. Still..... Most should have seen it coming. So many people are breeding their animals younger and younger. There's a mad dash for cash going on ya know. Espcially since the number of people with large amounts of money to spend on snakes is starting to run out. This is bad for the market and every worse for the boas.

Back to why I think it's a good thing.

I think it's good because people who really want these morphs will be able to afford them. Not everyone that purchases a morph plans on breeding it. There are actually people out that that want them for a "PET". Eventually they'll be able to afford one without taking out a second mortgage on their home. I think this is good.

I also think it's good, because Breeders/hobby breeders won't have "dollar signs" in their eyes when it comes to breeding. They'll look at their boas and see the AMAZING ANIMALS they really are and not a way to make a "quick buck". I think this is very good.

OK, there could be a down side to the price drop too. If the prices get too low they could become "disposable animals". I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about there.

Also as far as the "market" goes.... The market will take care of it's self. Some years it will go up and others it will go down. It will "never" be as high as when the morphs were new, but I know every one saw that coming.
