    Cool stuff! My normal girl would (in the future) only get loving from multi-gene males for this reason

    Yes, a lot of people have multiple normal females just because they're cheap females that can still carry eggs and pass on dom traits. I'll be breeding my adult normal to my bee when he gets to weight, and the same probably with my smaller normal since she's so clean and clear.

    Does anybody breed their normals to morphs?

    You can breed you males to 3-7 different females a year. Most People will throw 1-3 normal females in the mix. You usually want to breed the males to one of your project females first to better your odds of getting the multi gene/or super morph that you are aiming for, then breed him to the normals. "Rule of thumb" males should always be of equal or higher quality than the female.

    Normal Females are great for double or tripple gene males. I have two big normal females that I put my codom males to every year.

    Breeding a male morph to a female normal is also handy if you're a cheapskate like me and want a female of that morph Breed and pray the odd gods smile upon you!

    Normal females are an invaluable asset when producing animals for sale or just producing great quality animals. I have two females that make the highest quality enchi's and people love them. I have females that make great spiders and these are all normals. So yes I have 50+/- normal females that make normals for pet's and make great quality morphs just on their own.

    Great question for someone like me. So here's a question...the breeder I bought my nfbp from originally thought she might be a calico. I didn't ask anything at the time, but now I wonder, wouldn't there be a reason for her to think this at all..ie..a parent had the gene to begin with?
