It is simple supply and demand, no one should be surprised by the drops in morph prices.Originally Posted by Isis
Eventually all BP morphs will even out at just above normal prices. Take a look at corn snakes, the fact that you can get multiple recessive gene animals for under $40 is a testament to supply vs. demand.
Supply of morphs grows ridiculously fast. Demand grows as well, but not anywhere near as fast. For every person who produced 6 albinos last year, do you think there could ever possibly be 6 more people who decide to spend $800 on an albino?
Don't forget that the ball python hobby is a pyramid scheme. Know your place on the pyramid and be happy with it. If you're not happy, then either get out or move up. I'm personally happy having no plans to make money on my pets ever, that is why for me this is a hobby and not a business, and why I have a job to pay for it.
