"Now that can cause problems if there are negative recessive or polygenic traits to be brought out"
This is spot on. And you're right, you could have no problems at all. I agree that, as least from immediate glance, problems are less common in reptiles- but I guess I don't care to risk it.
Great things have been done with line breeding. No arguments there. But it is not foolproof and not without it's faults is all.I should maybe not have compared to humans - it is definitely something that has piqued my interest. I'd like to dig more into it when I have the time!
