No, it would not be a good idea because you would not know if any were het Clown! The Mojave and Normal babies may or may not be Het Clown so you could only sell them as Mojaves and normals and if they are Het Clown, you would lose a lot of money!
Re: Question about multiple sire's
Like everyone has said it helps to make sure your female will produce in case one male doesn't come through. Sometimes you do get lucky as I paired my spider female to my lemon blast and mojave males last year and hit both a spinner blast and spider mojave in the clutch...

One way you can do this is if you have one visual recessive father and one super codom father, and whatever genes the female carries, they can't match the codom father. For example, a male clown and a male super lesser bred to a female pastel. You'll get lessers, lesser pastels, het clowns, and pastels het clown, which will make it obvious which father was which.
