I don't see the market tanking. There will always be people who want single and double gene snakes. A high quality pastel with minimal browning out is going to be in higher demand than a pastel that could pass for a normal. The same goes for a clean BEL. It'll be more sought after than a BEL that has greying on it's head. On top of this, don't forget that people are quite happy to buy double and triple gene snakes in order to bring new genetics into their projects. Let's not forget how many "what the hell is that?" has happened by just crossing two snakes.

To add the icing on the cake, the BP community has been going on for I don't know how long and knew morphs are still being discovered. These can either be dinkers that are imported, or ones that randomly pop up as hets.

To answer the original question: yes, I imagine some of the 4+ morphs can be hard to see, especially if they have genes that cover patterns such as pied and leutistic. But you know what? That's the fun thing about breeding: you never know what you're going to get. I've owned Al, my main goat sire, for about 5 years and I've been using him for about four years now. It never ceases to amaze me on what colors he can produce.

Back to the point..Most of these 4+, especially the 5+ are only in a select number of hands. They're not going to be hitting the open market very soon, and the ones that do..Well..If I had the money to buy one of those, I certainly wouldn't be driving a gas guzzling SUV.
