    dont wanna do it, just wondering about it. i just read in another post about chances of a piebald, and they said you could mate a offspring female with the father after it gets to right size. is this considered inbreeding? also, is it inbreeding if you breed say an 03 baby with an 04 baby from the same mother/father?

    I'm not sure I can explain this properly.

    This sort of thing is often done with animals (parent to child). I suppose technically it is inbreeding, but as long as you don't breed within the line too much, you should be okay. I have no idea how often people try to breed sibs. I think that would still be inbreeding if you go 03 baby to 04 baby with same parents, after all the genes are from the outside sources.

    You can breed parent to child okay, but as you keep breeding, you want to add in other lines so that you maintin the good trait you want, but you try to bring in enough "fresh blood" to keep the line you are breeding to keep from getting sickly or having large amounts of gene abnormallies.

    You don't want to say breed parent to child and then breed parent to grandchild ( who resulted from parent and child) and then breed parent to great grand child (who resulted from parent and grandchild).

    LOL I don't think anyone is going to try to cross you back to your parents to enhance or reproduce some trait you carry. ew! :lmao:
