mixing with normal
What morph when mixed with a normal ball will give me a mostly morphed F-1 generation outcome. Meaning most of the generation will not be normal....

Any homozygous co-dom morph mated to a normal or wild type will give you all heterzygous morph offspring.
Example: Super pastel X normal = all pastels.

Re: mixing with normal
You really don't get a "most" possibility. It is either all, 50%, or none.
I think what you are looking for is "as much as possible", in which case, the super of any co-dom is what you want. Robin gave you the example of a super pastel, and there are lots of others.
With a regular pastel or any other regular version of a co-dom, you will expect 50% of the offspring to show the morph, but the odds don't always give you what is expected, so you could get anywhere from all morphs to all normals.
If you go with something that is a recessive trait, such as albino, none of the first generation offspring will show the trait, but all of them will be 100% het for the trait.
EDIT: Of course as soon as I clicked submit I realized I forgot about the possibility of multiple morphs in one snake, such as the bumblebee. In that case, you'd expect 25% bees, 25% pastels, 25% spiders, and 25% normals. Again, the odds will most likely not give you exactly what is expected.

Re: mixing with normal
Oh so with a bumble bee there is a possibilty of all those morphs? Just new to morphs and breeding trying to figure it all out.

Re: mixing with normal
Your best bet is to do a lot more reading on the subject. Learn basic genetics and how to use Punnett squares. Browse breeders' sites and you'll find lots of info about which morphs are recessive or co-dom, and which ones are created by combining multiple morphs. Plus of course read the forum here!
