just two quick comments...
yes mark. the jungle in question is no longer with us, the vet didnt know how to strilize her so we could give her away as a pet with out risk of her being breed again, so she got a needle.

with the inbreeding topic. if you are going to work with a line , this is how desirable traits are persuded. how ever strict control and good record keeping must be kept. first time brother and sister is fine but the off spring from them should be put to a outcross in our opinion. same deal with mother/son and father/daughter.
at this stage we have never seen or heard of any deformatiys from this style of breeding but yes if you just kept the family group mating over extended periods you would have to think the deformitys would surface eventually.
cheers paul.
