Mostly only people breeding are paying that much... and if i have to explain the math to you, it is probably a waste of time ;)

They are called morphs because they are different from the normal looking snake.... genetic morphs... and some of the more complex combinations are practically impossible to happen in nature... partly because of how rare they are to have the two gene carriers breed, and partly because any resulting offspring would be so easily spotted that it wouldnt live long to pass on the traits.
