I think they'll stabilize. But prices won't go back up. Sure a really top notch pastel will still fetch some money, but on the whole, they're down here to say.
And that's the catch-22. Many breeders can't afford new projects until they drop a lot in price. But by the time they can afford them and in a few years produce them, then often that morph is already in abundance.The new breeders need to expand their breeding plans and stop overproducing the same snakes once or twice a year. That in itself would help greatly.
