Banana/Coral Glow
Can you hear it?
All of those Bananas that have been hidden away and bred like crazy are starting to come out of hiding. Just seen a male for 4500. Guess the real DOWN TO EARTH prices will be coming around real soon. They will be 1200 or less by next year.

Banana/Coral Glow
what do you expect with a codom morph that has males producing mostly males?

Yep, simple supply and demand. People buy one male and breed it to 8 to 10 females. Producing 10 to 20 more bananas, so supply is growing incredibly quickly.
From a demand side, all the breeder needs is one male banana, so once they get that, they are no longer in the market for another one. So demand decreases as more people get theirs and then are no longer in the market.
$2000-$2500 next year
$800 - $1000 in 2015

I was just speaking to two large breeders today about the Banana market. They are holding steady on prices.
Was the $4500 from a large breeder? A 1.0 or 0.1? Male maker or female maker? Important facts as to the price you mention.
Why is this different than any other gene? Price drops are expected. Pinstripes and Spiders are no longer $25K. GHI's were $50K a few years ago.... now $7K. The big breeders are holding steady on prices as the little guys try to make a quick buck. When the little guys dump the few they have then what will be available? Big breeder prices. I highly doubt that a Banana will be $1200 next season.... maybe $2500- $3000.
There are many working with triple gene Banana morphs already that will keep the Banana prices at a relatively stable level. Super Bananas are just around the corner in numbers and will keep the Banana market at more stable levels. People will be vying for the right Banana combinations to make 1.0 Super Bananas.
I have invested in the Banana project at a great point. My 1.0 male maker is setting at over 300g now and should have no problem breeding this fall. He will make my investment back many times over.... and I will not be price dumping.

Re: Banana/Coral Glow
Yeah?
I'd say it depends on the sex bias thing to be honest.
If that holds true then female maker males might drop a bit but male makers might go up.

Do any other genes make the banana really look better though? I'm not saying there aren't I just haven't seen many must have combos, which I think will hurt their value long term. Kinda like it has to the champagne.

Male makers are going to be in high demand for a while to come. Mike's video is a great illustration of that.
It will be nearly impossible to make a 1.0 Super Banana from a 1.0 female maker. The video has some profound thinking as to where the Banana market is heading.... and it is not down the toilet despite what many would hope for.

Does not say male maker or not.... I highly doubt he just had his first shed. Speckling like that does not come in till usually the 3rd shed or so. That is one I would steer clear of at any price.
Doesn't quite look the quality of this guy on his 2nd shed.
