I think that argument is valid in more and more areas each year. I've heard a lot of breeders in various states say they're sitting on lots of corns when, in years past, they normally sell out fairly quickly. In my own area this has been the case over the past few years.
I know for my own collection...I'm only going to breed my "projects" from now on, just for my own pleasure. I'm no longer going to breed every corn I own, I used to do that just purely for the fun of it, then wholesale them dozens at a time to local shops (I don't make money this way, but it's not about the money). I used to sell normals and amels by the bunch to local shops. I remember many trips to local pet shops when the owners would see me in their store and say "hey, got any corns? we need more corns", this hasn't been the case lately.
If someone lives in an area where there's not an abundance of corn breeders, they'd actually be doing local herpers and shop owners a favor by breeding a variety of corn morphs.
Breeding is a TON of fun...so breed what you can sell and HAVE FUN
