When talking trade's money value goes out the window. At this point you're simply trying to trade one animal for another, the money value isn't as important as the ratio of collection potential. Is the animal you're getting going to advance your collection and in-turn producing potential over that of the animal you own.. example, I' trade a breeder Pied female for Juvi LA or clown female..so with trades you need to focus more on the impact the trade has on your collection and nothing else..That's just the way I look at it..
