Well, i read through this old thread, and i must say it was very interesting revisited....idk about everyone else's thoughts, but mine are this:
Most small hobbyist breeders and even newbies to the scene are focusing on double and triple gene co dom and dom animals, because they are affordable. Thus, the prices of single gene animals are going down even further. Instead of purchasing a pastel and a spider, people are just outright getting a bee. (or pewter,or firefly,or butterbee, etc.) I think many of us are headed toward the direction i want to head in. Which is focusing on a small collection of multi-gene animals. The potential is sooo much greater, when you have a "power group" that can produce so many different combos in just one single clutch. Plus, having a smaller collection reduces housing and feeding costs, which is desirable in these economic times. Mix in a few recessive genes with your "power group", and the possibilities are endless! Just my
