just read a post about inbreeding, I bought a male and female from the philly show in november, and they just started to breed, first eggs were infertile, The guy had a lot of about 20 geckos in a rubbermaid, never really thought they could be brother and sister....should I separate them?

Inbreeding is how we got all of our different morphs. So I'm guessing it'll be fine unless you don't like the idea of a brother and sister mating.

Was more worried about the defects than the morals but thats a good point it is a bit weird

Just read another interesting thread http://www.**********.co.uk/forum/YaBB.pl?board=leos;action=display;num=1068833135

replace the stars with gecko world without the space



btw I realize this should be in the Breeding/incubation thread but I thought it especially applied to leopard geckos with all the designer morphs

Nowadays its almost impossible to have leopard geckos that arent related in some way ... since they arent imported anymore, there constantly inbred to produce all these colours
