Well I don't know Richard, they must be worth it at the time for a lot of people, because I produced over 50 snows and albino red-sideds and have sold every single one of them (minus the one albino female and snow male that I kept for myself) plus sold all the by-product hets, yet still I keep my day job, lol you should see my expences in a year, ouch, my rodent and bedding bills alone would probably cause you a heart attach Richard, plus since my Garter Snake Morph business is a legally registered business, I actually pay taxes as well. I think they were kinda cheap considering how beautiful they are and what great dispositions they have, and their number of morph gene copies, maybe I wasn't charging enough? lol
