You need to add in food, electricity, substrate, vet and tank setup.

2 Lesser Plats cost around 1000-1500 bucks together

That is almost half the cost of a BEL
Well, to extend that logic further, you could save the money you'd have spent buying the ingredients of the desired morph, and save the money you'd spend caring for them, and, in a few years, buy want you want outright. However, that would take all the fun out of it, wouldn't it?

I've thought that about a few of my projects, but nothing beats the joy of seeing that lovely morph emerging from an egg, especially after a few years of waiting.

That said, I'd go for buying the nicest female het lucy now, and start looking for a male for her in a year (since the female will take more time to get up to breeding weight/age).

We'll be looking for your BEL pics in the future!
