I've never heard it mentioned anywhere before even in different kinds of snakes.
If i buy 2 mexican black king snakes from the same place and they are both the same age, chances are they are going to be from the same clutch right?
So if i was then to breed these two snakes together, would it be a bad thing? like would the hatchlings come out with and extra arm or somthing (lol)? Well not an arm but would their be problems with the eggs and such?
Thanks for a fast reply.

Mark.

Snakes don't seen to suffer from these problems much. Obviously if you can get an unrelated pair that would be preferable but its not vital


1.1.0 Arizona mountain king (Sylar and Claire)
0.1.0 Blotched king ( Jasmin)
1.1.0 Guyana red-tail boa (Hercules and Athena)
1.0.1 children (Alfie and BUMP)

I agree, get unrelated if possible. Inbreeding is never a good thing.
