Very well said Rainer. I also believe trends do die trying to predict that is the hard part for sure. BP's, unfortunately make really good first snakes. Just like corns. Plenty of color and patterns to choose, and set ups are quite simple. The BP reign may last a while because they only lay 4 -8 eggs, typically. Once all the noobies realize they want to branch out to either a challenge or to snakes they used to catch/see when they were kids, the colubrid sales will go up.
I dont like the price structure of BP or westerns as a hobbiest but its just new stuff demands higher price until the big breeders have thier fill and that part of the market is saturated, then price falls. All in all, the end result will be white and yellow,brown and black snakes. I say let them bring in the new guys/gals to the hobby, we all know our collection changes all the time and we keep many different species or ssp throught out our lives. So some will want to try their luck at colubrids someday.
