    Breeding ... ?
    Well i was looking up somthing on the internet and it said that you can breed a male and female BP together from the same clutch ( brother and sister ) ?
    If that true or will the babies come out de-formed ?
    Thanks :)

    Breeding siblings should be fine. The only real problem is if you keep breeding related animals. For example, if you bred siblings, and then bred the offspring of that pairing together and then bred the offspring of that pairing together. Ralph Davis has a video on youtube about line breeding and what the outcome might be. He had a clutch of albinos that were deformed.

    Yes you can do it and most breeders do 1-2 generations of inbreeding to get that morph then they move onto new blood.

    What link, theres no link stating you cant and can inbreed, this is dont by breeder research per say.

    Just dont go too much with the siblings and youll be fine.

    I don't think this is the right video but this clutch was from a related pair.
