Bamboo are below $1000 and yes there was recently a female from a breeder sold for $550 (that does not mean that all of the sudden that is their value)
Se7en, one of our forum regulars, has a 1.1 pair of Bamboos. i think he's gonna work Super Stripe into one of them. check out the pix he's posted. good looking animals, can't wait to see what he produces.
Bamboos prices are much lower now. Over summer/fall there were quite a few hatchling for sale at shows. I saw some people post on here about picking a few of them up. This would mean that all those people are raising them up and the people who produced those are probably waiting for their breeders to recover. I love the bamboo and hope to get my guy breeding soon
