Smile breeding

Due to inexperience, I bought my 3 beardies from the same breeder at the same time.
We have 1 male, 1 female & 1 unknown (due to slow development). They are now 10mnths old & I guess getting ready to mate. The male is getting a really dark beard.
I know I can't breed siblings, so do I have to either separate them or swap my male with someone for an unrelated male?
If I swap, does the new male need to be the same age as the female?
Is there anything else that I need to take into consideration?

thanks
Katrina

I thought it was ok to breed siblings, mind you i've been wrong before so i'm probably wrong again..

And i think they need another year at least to reach the right age for breeding..

sibling interbreeding only usually affects the animals after several generations
