I know. That's what I said.

Because short of that, I don't see much changing.

I too wish prices would stay higher but I know they won't.

Until, or unless, there is a limit placed, how many are available, how many you can have, something like that, there will always be guys selling low.

I see it in False Water Cobras too. I am the most expensive guy out there. I see LOTS of other people sell out while I sell few. Then, as my snakes get older, I raise my prices and sell my snakes.

People that won't pay me 200.00 for a hatchling will give me 350.00 for a yearling. It doesn't cost me 150.00 to keep one for a year so my profit went up.

It's not easy to sit on babies, especially when the power bill is due and rent is right around the corner, and sometimes wholesaling is necessary and then there are deals to friends, but I have found that waiting it out will eventually sell my stock at my price.
No, there shouldn't be any body to oversee prices. I just have this pipe dream that some of the people will wake up and take the time to work out a better business plan than the idiotic ones they use now.
