If you buy a 100% het pied from a reputable breeder, there is no way you'll get ripped off ... marker or not.

As you move forward in your breeding endeavors, remember ... living creatures are not something you want to do "on the cheap" ... buy from any of the top breeders in the business and you'll do very well!

Good luck!
