I have been tracking this for a while and think I have figured it all out. If what I have is true, it will give both beginner buyers and breeders an idea of what to sell combo morph animals for.

Basic concept: Take the sum of the base price of each morph and multiply it by the number of morphs. Below are examples:

Bumble Bee: Spider ($250) + Pastel ($100)= $350 x 2 morphs= $700
Lemon YB Fader: Enchi ($400) + Lemon ($350) + Fader ($750)= $1500 x 3 morphs= $4500
Enchi Lemon YB Fader: Enchi ($400) + Lemon ($350) + YB ($150) + Fader ($750)= 1650 x 4 morphs= $6600.

Seems to add up in the examples. This doesn't work when dealing with extreme high end morphs (Bananas) as the price ends up exceeding what the market is willing to pay. The reason it is not just straight addition is that the combination of morphs takes work and breeding. And the more morphs you have in the same animal, the more it is worth.

Let me know your thoughts.
