Heterozygous traits, how much would you pay for 100% reassurance?

Some consider reptile morphs beautiful animals in their own right. Some view them more as an investment and are mainly interested in breeding them for a profit. The appearance in the market of recessive normal-looking animals heterozygous for a certain morph has resulted in all kinds of discussions about origins, genetics, and if they truly are what they are claimed or normal animals sold as such by unscrupulous individuals.

Buying a baby reptile, raising it to maturity, breeding it and then discovering it’s not what it was claimed it’s highly frustrating to say the least. We invest money, hope, effort, and time into a venture with total uncertainty on the outcome until most of the time it’s too late. The individual that sold us the snake will not assume responsibility of what he had done and most of the time there is little legal recourse.

Now, if there was something that could be done and that would legally protect us while at the same time reassure us that we have in effect a heterozygous for such a morph, would you utilize such a service?

How much would it be worth to you to have the peace of mind than in those 4-5 years before we produce that first anxiously awaited clutch we will produce what in fact we were told and if not you have grounds for an easy lawsuit?

No, I’m not rambling, this is for real. Please take some time to think if you might use such a service. Think of all the time, effort, and expense you are putting during those years before you answer.

How much would you be willing to pay for that peace of mind and reassurance (yes, it's kind of an insurance) as a one time payment per animal. Please bear in mind that we are talking about expensive recessive heterozygous animals here, those that the visual morph will be worth between $1,000 and your most wildest ($$$) dreams! Just remember that you, the customer would be the one to pay for this service and not the breeder.

Please keep in mind that we always want to pay as little as possible. The question is actually asking "how much would it be worth to you" rather than how much would you be willing to pay.

Best regards,
