Excellant post collin! You have taken great business information and put perspective on the whole situation. Every choice we make has consequences, and this has taken business transaction to an easy an applicable way to see those results.

I would never sell an animal for less then value, of course I own a totally different business which would allow me not to rely on my small hobb/business interest for income. This gives me the luxury of not having to be faced with difficult choices.

This problem is complicated, and understandable at both ends in a tough economic time. Another example of where they industry from big to small hobby breeders need to stand together, respect, promote each other and what we do. Together you actually create a better market, more business and further the industry as a whole.

Great post colin!
