Children's can breed without a winter cooling period and without seperation of sexes prior to mating season.

so many people have a misconception abotu the dangers of inbreeding. Any pedigree animal will have been inbred almost all the way back along its family tree.
It is not necessarily a dramatic danger of genetic abnormality. However, if there are recessive traits present in both individuals which lead to genetic disorders, then it can beome a problem. However, it is not a given that it will lead to these sorts of problems.
Even with respect to humans, it is not really all that much of an issue (not advising it) to deal with unless there are genetic disorders present int he family history.
It is when it is taken to extremes - read the european royal families - that problems such as haemophilia come to the fore.
i know guys on here have bred 7 gens with no abnormailies. In fact, inbreeding can have beneficial outcomes for the phenotypic types of animals you may/may not produce.

I would guess it also depends on the individual snake. Some may prefer company while others wouldnt.
