As far as price goes, I'm actually pretty new to the BP game. I did go to a reptile show last year and my friend bought a female hi-contrast Albino for about $450. After deciding I might want to add one to my collection, I research and find that prices haven't really dropped at all. So I'm assuming that Pieds will always retain more value than other morphs (ex. Bought a nice Female Pinstripe for $325 a year ago from BHB, which now sell for $250).
My figuration as far as money goes, you will probably make more money on producing visual morphs het pied than actual normal visual pieds. My plan is to purchase all dom/codom/het females this year, and visual males next year and start from there and just pray I manage to get uber lucky and hit my ultimate dream (Pied Caramel Albino Clown!? FTW?) but also produce some stock to make some awesome morphs in the process. What I wouldn't do for a Lesser Clown *drools*
Also, if you just breed for combos that YOU like, you probably wont mind ending up with a few extra babies
