    Banana/Coral Glow

    Can you hear it?

    All of those Bananas that have been hidden away and bred like crazy are starting to come out of hiding. Just seen a male for 4500. Guess the real DOWN TO EARTH prices will be coming around real soon. They will be 1200 or less by next year.

    Banana/Coral Glow

    what do you expect with a codom morph that has males producing mostly males?

    I was just speaking to two large breeders today about the Banana market. They are holding steady on prices.

    Was the $4500 from a large breeder? A 1.0 or 0.1? Male maker or female maker? Important facts as to the price you mention.

    Why is this different than any other gene? Price drops are expected. Pinstripes and Spiders are no longer $25K. GHI's were $50K a few years ago.... now $7K. The big breeders are holding steady on prices as the little guys try to make a quick buck. When the little guys dump the few they have then what will be available? Big breeder prices. I highly doubt that a Banana will be $1200 next season.... maybe $2500- $3000.

    There are many working with triple gene Banana morphs already that will keep the Banana prices at a relatively stable level. Super Bananas are just around the corner in numbers and will keep the Banana market at more stable levels. People will be vying for the right Banana combinations to make 1.0 Super Bananas.

    I have invested in the Banana project at a great point. My 1.0 male maker is setting at over 300g now and should have no problem breeding this fall. He will make my investment back many times over.... and I will not be price dumping.

    Re: Banana/Coral Glow

    Yeah?

    I'd say it depends on the sex bias thing to be honest.

    If that holds true then female maker males might drop a bit but male makers might go up.

    Derek

    7 adult Royals (2.5), 1.0 COS Pastel, 1.0 Enchi, 1.1 Lesser platty Royal python, 1.1 Black pastel Royal python, 0.1 Blue eyed leucistic ( Super lesser), 0.1 Piebald Royal python, 1.0 Sinaloan milk snake 1.0 crested gecko and 1 bad case of ETS. no wife, no surprise.

    Male makers are going to be in high demand for a while to come. Mike's video is a great illustration of that.

    It will be nearly impossible to make a 1.0 Super Banana from a 1.0 female maker. The video has some profound thinking as to where the Banana market is heading.... and it is not down the toilet despite what many would hope for.

    I'm looking forward to maybe picking up a female or two next year. Beautiful morph.

    Does not say male maker or not.... I highly doubt he just had his first shed. Speckling like that does not come in till usually the 3rd shed or so. That is one I would steer clear of at any price.

    Doesn't quite look the quality of this guy on his 2nd shed.

    The 4500 was a male maker male so I guess that theory is out. They will be 1200 or less by next year. Do you even realize how many bananas are out there? The banana market is on its way down. And faster than what some may want to believe. Don't care which breeders think they are going to hold on to the 10k+ price tag. Not many are going to pay it if they can go get them for 8k+ less. A banana is a banana. Doesnt matter who makes it. Talk to someone like Kevin and see what his thoughts are on the subject. Yes double, tripple, quad, supers and the like will still hold a good Proffitt. Thats a no brainer as its more than one gene.
