It is done but it's not something I would do. In breeding any animal will always run the risk of increasing recessive gene deformities. |
4.1.0 corns - Izzy (Carolina) Alice (Amel) Peanut (Butter Motley) Swayze (Ghost) Carmellia (Butter Motley) 0.1.0 cat - Kizzy 1.0.0 Dog - Dobbie Location - Chesterfield, Derbyshire

just to ask a further question to the first...... could you introduce several different males to one female
eg. female amel could she be first introduced to a diffused 1 day then a snow the next day then etc etc, and if so what effect would it have??? at first i thought it was wrong but now im not sure |

Actually a lot of dog's wont breed with their parents and the same goes for lots of animals in the wild. Gene deformities are found in a lot of pedigree animals, such as German shepherd's have weak back legs and prone to going blind. While mongrels are generally healthier because they have a more diverse gene pool. But considering snakes have been around for over 100million years, I think they will be OK! |
