    question about breeding siblings...
    From the information I have read on this forum, it is not wise to breed siblings.
    My question: Would breeding a female from last years clutch to a male from this years clutch (same parents) be considered as "breeding siblings" ?
    thank you

    Yes, if they have the same parents it doesn't matter if they hatched ten minutes apart or ten years apart, they are still full siblings.

    Think of it this way:

    My younger brother is five years younger than me, but his mum is my mum. His dad is my dad. He's my full brother. We're still full siblings, even with the five-year age gap.

    This is how we prove out hets, we breed daughter back to daddy or son back to mommy.

    But, it's completely fine to inbreed after about 2 or 3 generations, but after that I would stop because the babies will get... you know.. dumber.
