Zombie thread alert, this thread is from 2010, much has changed since then.

there are now many basic morphs that you can get for 100 dollars or less at reptile shows. you can get well-started good quality normals starting at 15-20 dollars now. and breedings of normal to normal are getting really rare. even hobbyists and amateurs have access to double gene or triple gene combos for breeding. these developments were all underway in 2010, but the additional years since this thread was last active make a difference.
