A certain level of inbreeding is alright, however if you continuously breed brother and sister I think that certain problems may occur. Keep in mind that in the wild if a brother and sister don't wander far enough away from each other, they will end up breeding.

I would say its okay as long as you don't go more than 4 or 5 generations without new blood.
