I am not a big breeder, and I understand your frustration. I would say that most big breeders have felt your pain several times over. Most big breeders have taken very big risks financially, and must be able to make a living. The fact of the matter is we are in a supply and demand world, and I would argue that most big breeders are able to get moe $$ from their animals , because of reputation in the business. I would suggest that we all roll with the punches in this game. To make it in this world we have to earn our stripes. I know that when I sell snakes, almost no one says I will take you animal at your listed price. Most will try and hammer down the price.I know first hand that the prices will drop on all of my investments. I believe the 1st plasma televisions were several thousands of dollars just a few yrs ago. You can get the same tv (only better) for a much lower cost. Breed your animals and sell at the market. Thats just the way capitalism goes.
