    If he is a normal he will only produce normals unless he is heterozygous for a particular morph which is unlikely unless you purchased him as a het. Even then you would need to breed him to another het for the same gene. There are co-dominant genes, dominant genes, and recessives. Co-dom and dominant genes are usually visable to the snake so you will know if you have one and recessives need 2 of a gene to produce a visable morph, so both the male and female must have the gene and they need to match up (look up punnet squares). Also you can only make supers if you breed co-dom genes together. So if you want morphs you will have to buy morphs. I think this is what you are asking. hope it helps. There are exceptions with certain morphs and appearances but in general this is the idea. Also you can have a morph male or female and make morphs, not just female.
