    I think the only people breeding a normal male is someone who is breeding just to breed with only a normal male and a normal female. The only other people who breed "normal" males are people working with serious dinker projects.

    I personally don't see a lot of breeding worth in normal males. Since males can be bred to more than one female, it makes sense to breed a male with the most genes so it passes those genes onto the babies. If you breed a normal male...the only morphs you'll ever get is if your female is a morph. But then again, that's a waste because it's so much better to breed your morph female to a morph male to make more morph babies.

    i use a strong Dinker/normal male to get my females ready since my morphs males are quite small... helping me to save their "load" for the right time. But when i will get my morphs male to a honest size i will stop doing that because there is still a risk that this guy fathered the eggs.
