    Im not sure how the whole breeding thing works becuase people pay a bunch for a morph then when you breed them and make more technically it should make them less valuable since they arent as rare anymore. Seriously who can honestly say that ANY snake should be worth or cost $40,000
    or even 20,000.

    Why is art so expensive? Why is a big piece of cloth stretched over a wooden frame with random splotches of pigmentation slapped onto it sold for a million dollars or more at auction? We do not put a price on beauty which reflects some sort of physical need or desire which it may fulfil; we do not wish to surround ourselves with things which are beautiful because they serve some purpose, or have some practical function. We desire beautiful things, even things which have no purpose or practical function, because they enrich our lives and give meaning to those plain, practical, functional things we must have. They have great value for that quality; the quality which enriches us in some way not physical.

    No, maybe a snake isn't, practically speaking, worth $20,000, but then, is a box with thousands of tiny lights which serves no purpose other than to entertain us worth several thousand dollars? Is a movie, which serves no practical purpose, worth the money we spend--is Harry Potter 6 worth the $79.5 million dollars it earned in the opening weekend?

    Maybe it is, and maybe it isn't, but there's always a reason that things are priced the way they are. Maybe to you that snake isn't worth $20,000, but certainly, to someone else it is.


    To address the OP, I have no clue! I love to think about it, and always look forward to seeing what new genetic mutation we'll see from Africa each year. It's fun to see what else there is out there; almost as fun as it is to speculate.
