    yea, just ot at the same time.. lol... you lower your chances on a certain morph and you never know how many 1 male will sire if you do that. but yea, you can.

    1.0 Cinny het Albino
    0.1 Albino
    0.3 Pastel
    0.1 BEL (Lesser x Mojave)
    0.1 Pinstripe
    0.2 Normal

    It is possible to have more than one sire to a clutch. However, if you're looking for a certain morph it isn't recommended to "pimp out" your female. However if you want to roll the dice go for it!

    This is not always successful though, normally it does not happen more than it does, but good luck!

    Last season there was an insane amount of multi sired clutches on this site. One was even with three sires and none of the babies were normals! This year all of my girls are getting bred with my spider and pastel because I can't decide who should get who. The odds of getting a multi sired clutch is low, but my females are all being breed and I'll get pastels or spiders or both!

    There is no health concern with breeding a female to multiple males. Just give her breaks, feed her if she'll eat, and follow normal breeding protocol.

    Re: Using multiple males

    I have a couple who's your daddy pairings this season. pastel lesser, lemon blast, bumblebee x a couple pastels and norms. the PL and LB are 2010's and the bee is a proven 08. i'm trying it because i just couldn't decide who to use when the little guys(PL & LB) started locking up with females. I'm running my bee with them just in-case the younger ones are shooting blanks. I think it's fun to have a few clutches like that every season....
