Actually with so many imported normals there really isn't much reason to breed normals period. There wasn't much breeding of ball pythons before the morphs and lots of the cb normals now are either direct byproducts of morph projects or due to the increased interest in the species due to morphs.
In the case of dominant type morphs such as spiders there is an incredible level of outbreeding going on with young spider males to lots of different older normal females. With recessive morphs inbreeding isn't uncommon, especially at the beginning of a new morph.

- Yes, inbreeding is done heavily with ball pythons (more) - Philly_nr, Fri Mar 18 13:37:30 2005
