    It really doesn't seem to cause any problems unless you do it generation after generation. I don't think doing it once or twice in a blood line will result in any negative offspring except in a few rare cases.

    I haven't seen any ill effects from breedings siblings together in reptiles through the years I've been breeding. There is always the chance for kinking, bad eggs, dead babies etc, but I haven't seen or heard of these things being more prevalent in sibling breedings.
