I am rather new to the gecko world, this upcoming February will be the year mark since I got into leos, but I've never really heard too much on this topic.
So, Yay or Nay on inbreeding? Does it cause deformities like in people and dogs/cat/horses/ect.? I know in the fish world that inbreeding actually improves genetics to an extent. Every 5 or so generations you would have to outsource..
I don't plan on breeding for quite a while, probably just going to stay an owner and expand my collection a little bit, but one can never know too much!
Please give me your two cents on this topic!
