I live in a 1mil pop city. We have our petco's and whatnot. I'm referring to the smaller "botique" type exotics stores, of which we have several. Plus, if you count all of the exotic pet stores within 4 hours drive of here, there are probably several dozen.
Ultimately, nobody would be in the breeding business if they couldn't sell the offspring, normal or otherwise. I think the message here should be more like "You shouldn't put yourself in a position where you are rushed to get rid of the offspring".
I was referring to a smaller Mom and Pop reptile store as the one who imported the 1000.
And, as for the rushing, that is a personal issue, mostly due to funding and patience.
I still believe that if you cannot afford to keep them, don't breed them.
