I think people assume the price will go down because the number of animals being produced is going up. I guess...

But...Let's say 1000 people want to buy pieds each year. Last year, say only 500 were produced, so the price was high because demand far outweighs production. So, this year, maybe 600 are produced. Demand still far outweighs production so the chance of prices across the board going down are slim to none.

I suppose it's possible that because more "small-time" breeders are getting out there and trying to make names for themselves, you might be able to find a good deal on an individual pied, but that would be a lucky find, and not a reflection on the market as a whole.

That is my relatively un-educated take on the topic.
