Pieds have dropped considerably in price. But $400 for a recessive sounds like a pretty good price.
If you have the patience to grow out some holdbacks and line breed or bring in another unrelated Piebald with funds generated from those offspring you do not hold back, that is a great way to start some really nice combos.
I like the high whites like yours although my personal preference runs to the low whites with a bunch of orange.
In a reasonable sense, you never overpay for what you like and are willing to pay for an animal you like
Lol well said Neil.
Also thank you all for your comments on this pied I wasn't sure what the value of them were. Now all I'm waiting for is for him to finish digesting his food and a photo shoot is coming to a screen near you.
