A hypo bred to a hog does not make a sunset. Sunsets are probalby the most beautiful hypo out there (HypoXHogs too!). They don't tend to brown out like most other hypos in maturity...thank the hog for that.
I understand why the puritan locality breeders are offended by the cross mutations, but I don't feel they should be durogatory against those that are different. We should all be entitled to keep and breed what we deem beautiful. Besides, normal hypos can still be found for $1500 or more as a baby, so why not charge more for something that will be far more beautiful at maturity than a normal hypo? Something is only worth what someone is willing to spend on it... as is the case with all morphs. Supply and demand. If no one was willing to pay 5k for an animal, then price would soon reflect that. That it is still 5k after a couple of years speaks volumes.
And, I too want a pair of sunsets for $500!
