Its awfully hard to compete with imported baby balls coming in for as cheap as $5 or $6 dollars.The average person who just wants a pet, is usually the person who goes to every table at a show and buys the cheapest available ball. Trying to convince these people to pay $50 for a cb hatchling is like pulling teeth.Its not that the breeders are ignoring a segment of the ball python community,its just that it doesnt make sense to breed balls soley to cater to this group of people. Sure, there are some buyers who are appreciative of cb normals.But there are lots of penny pinchers who only look at price.Its also ludicris to expect breeders with morphs to set aside a few normal females for the purpose of producing nice normals.
