I do feel like too many people are breeding BPs and oversaturating the market. It seems to have happened in just a couple years---I first started researching getting a BP in 2014. I went to a reptile expo in 2014 and there were only a few BP breeders, and their prices were pretty high. I didn't buy anything. I went to the same expo in 2015 and it seemed like every other vendor had BPs, and they were super cheap---normals for $15, and I got a pretty little cinnamon lesser for $100. One expo isn't the whole story, but just look on the internet, even on craigslist. . .
Anyway, I'm sort of happy because I just want a cheap, pretty pet. But on the other hand, I feel like there are going to be a whole lot of unwanted BPs flooding the rescues in a couple years. I'm not sure everyone involved is entirely committed :/.
