Prices down?

[Pythonfriend]

lots of truth here.

im still in the process of saving up and changing my living situation in order to get my first BPs, and i want very nice looking pets and do intend on future breeding.

im also in the process of figuring out what to start with, and im absolutely not interested in normals (male or female), or single gene males. im also not interested in single-gene females that are too basic. a female pastel or het red axanthic wouldnt do it for me. Normal hets are also losing their appeal, it got to be visual recessives and hets with extra genes.

i agree, that very basic stuff will probarbly sink to the price of normals and bottom out.

i think there is a paradigm shift going on: it used to be that when you breed lets say for firefly, only the normals you get were misses, and the pastels and fires were hits and the firefly was the jackpot.

now its more like: the normals are misses, the male fires and pastels are misses because of their low price and because they are not really interesting for breeding anymore, nice single-gene females can still be considered a hit (people still pay for NICE single gene females as the post above mine illustrates), but really, its just about getting the fireflies.

and medium-sized and big breeders are far ahead and their holdbacks are stuff like lesser pastel leopard clown. stuff like 5-gene codominant/dominant combos, wild super combos, recessives loaded with extra genes, double recessives.
