What's everyone's policy on rotating multiple males through a female? Good idea? More likely to get offspring?

I am of the opinion that if you are going for sheer numbers (as many clutches as possible but don't care about the outcome) that it's a wise idea to rotate multiple codom/dom males through your normal girls, that way your chances of actually producing are higher but the odds of you getting a specific morph are less.

Isn't it overall better to rotate two males through a female than just one? (assuming you have an extra male of the same genetic)

Like with 2 het males to a het female or two pastels to a female pastel?......

Just looking for opinions.
