    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

While you probably won't get any horrific birth defects (unless these sibs are the product of prior inbreeding), they will have reduced immune system function, smaller clutches, shorter lifespan, and numerous other problems stemming from reduced genetic health. Inbreeding is well understood in many, many organisms, and the effects are detrimental enough that many species (even plants and fungi) have sophisticated methods of avoiding it.

I would recommend not purchasing siblings if your plans are to breed them, for one simple reason: Too many people do it. The founding stock of the US woma population was somewhat limited, and there hasn't been significant "new blood" introduced (they are from Australia, remember). As Henry stated, you may not see horrific defects if you do....but doesn't it make more sense to try to produce stronger animals? It isn't like there aren't plenty of them around to choose from.

Of course, with your location listed as "e", my comment about US stock could have no impact on you...but the rest of the post is still applicable :D
