Breeding Normals..is it a bad thing?

Cannot be het for a co dom, not possible.

Breeding for normals is okay as long as you plan to keep them or have an outlet for them.

X2 what will you do with the offspring? I understand the desire to do so but you should understand clearly from the start it's not economically sustainable unless your fine committing hundreds of dollars to raising and caring for normals. It's not possible to have them pay for themselves like some other morphs, they are offered at shows for $20 and free from many breeders with any other purchase so the market is flooded with them and many are culled. As hobbyist we have higher cost then the breeders do per head each baby will need 5-6 meals at least before selling and ones that don't sell still need to eat, few months down the road when your 50-60 bucks in rodents a 300g normal is still only worth $20.

You could breed both your normals to other mates instead for example pair them each with a super, ALS, or recessive morph and then none of your offspring will be normals and you will at least likely be able to sell a few to cover some feeder cost. Another project would be taking the one you think looks different and breeding it selectively to see if that's a genetic or random mutation.
