I know a lot of people look at "normal" males as being about half a step above worthless, but I say keep him.

1.) You've grown attached.
2.) He has personality and feeds well.
3.) If, for some reason, you ever have to sell off the rest of your collection to raise money (or whatever) you can always hold him back from the "fire sale" and not feel like you lost out on an extra $500-$2000 dollars.
4.) Even nice colored, clean patterned MALES can be used to clean up the look of a morph. Pastels and hypos would be two examples.
5.) A good pet that isn't bred is worth more than a finicky morph that WON'T breed.

Only my opinion... and, no, I am not a "morph" basher. I have a decent collection myself and personally, I think I've grown to like my snakes for their individual "quirks" and behaviors more than I do for their colors or patterns (they don't hurt, though)!
