I don't know about that. While the female prices may drop off, the desert gene is an amazing addition to combos. I'm willing to bet many people will be hands off with the desert gene. But with only 25% of the clutch being "valuable" to breeding projects, it may maintain its value-- or, if enough people throw in the towel, the prices could go up if the demand for this gene in morphs stayed the same level as supply went down. The gene is as difficult to produce as recessives are at that 25% probability rate.
