They can be sick and or deformed if you interbreed. I would keep the larger male and go get a female from another breeder or pet store, then you can be pretty sure they are not related. I would just feed them all to your snake and keep the large male. Just my advice though.

"Inbreeding" or "line-breeding" doesn't always develop deformities. I have seen several "pet" breeders breeding brother to sister regularly with no problems. I wouldn't suggest breeding the offspring to each other, but the first generation sibling breeding isn't too much of a problem.
Take care

It does take experience to judge the distance between the "liquid excritory device"(male or female) and the anus. Since I breed mice, I can now sex fuzzies with 100 percent accuracy(I have had 1 mistake in the past while and I have sexed about 500 mice). Its not an easy thing for the begginer. When you pick males up, their "creation spheres" drop into their body, but the sack that holds them is still a little visible. Also, the females will have a hole in which the what looks like a male "liquid excritory device" resides, while the males "liquid excritory device" will be sticking out there. LOL. Good luck!

How is that 100 %? Just kidding, not bad for 500 mice. Did you mistake a he for she or she for he?

To sex my rodents(mice, spinies, gerbils, ect.) I hold them upside down by the tail then push their stomache just a little. Just enough to see if they show. If its a male they will show.
