I'm sure this question has been here in one form or another, but I'll ask again... I've only been into boas for about the last 10 months or so, what is everyones opinion on the market for morphs??? When I started out, I remember just born Sunglows selling for 7k or so, and now I see yearlings for 4-5k.... This is just one example.. I'm thinking of purchasing alot of higher end animals this year, and I'm just wondering how fast the market drops... Would it be worth it to purchase a sub adult motley and hopefully breed him this coming season, or will everyone and their brother be producing snakes of these sorts, which would possibly crash the market??? I love the snakes I own, and I'd have every morph out there if they sold for petstore prices, but obviously the only way to obtain all of the animals I want, is to play the breeding game... If this was a dumb post, then please disregaurd, but people with a thought, I'd love to hear your opinion on which way you think the morph industry could/will turn, and why... Thanks in advance for your advice/opinions... Joe Lydon
