I agree that normals can and do exhibit a tremendous degree of variance. We have a good many morphs in our collection now, but I still enjoy the diversity displayed by our normals.

I understand not everyone is interested in making the investment of time and energy necessary to work with an unproven animal, especially when the end result of years of effort may be that the animal is just a normal.

I am thankful there are some breeders willing to take a chance on some of these "normals", as there are several morphs we now enjoy that are the fruits of those efforts.

Here's a couple of pics of a proven morph that IMO looks more normal than many of the animals pictured in this thread. I wonder how many times Vin Russo heard "it's just a normal", when he started that project. Heck, he probably still hears it, 'cause you know, it really does look like a "normal".
