I've been curious about this for awhile. I was at the Hamburg show on Saturday, and I saw quite a few adult Columbians, Argentines, and even a couple Hoggs, of both sexes for $100-$300. There were several breedable female Columbians for $150, while there were quite a few baby normals for $100 and up, and the baby Argentines were $125 and up, while there were adults for $200. Does any body know why adults are so cheap compared to babies?
