Utta, the price usually drops--the question is, by how much. You can't tell how much the price is likely to drop until you can gauge the DEMAND--ie, how many people are buying, and how much they are willing to pay. For folks to simply go 200 bucks under last year's price makes no logical sense, no matter how many people there are breeding lower-quality animals. You can't judge how much the most butt-ugly animal you had the misfortune to produce will be worth until you know how much the average ones should be going for...until you know what the demand is.
(Just kidding--I've never seen a butt-ugly ball python, they're all gorgeous, some are just more so than others).
