A question for Breeders

Banana clown is quite difficult to produce from scratch. It will take years and multiple clutches of many snakes.

dedicated breeders have already produce them. You can get one on MorphMarket right now for $500 or more.

If someone wants a (no idea if it's even real) Banana Clown, and already has half of the pair, theyll go out and buy the other half, then breed (let's assume clutch of 6), then pick the baby they want to keep. That process has now resulted in six unwanted snakes. What happens to them? Where do all these extra snakes go?

If you just want something for your collection, it's easier and cheaper to buy it than breed it. Plus Clown is recessive, so you'd have to wait another generation at least to get the animal you're looking for. Breeding snakes is not as easy as breeding dogs. If it were, even more people would be doing it.
