You can but you're more likely to get birth defects.

You can, but most breeders wouldn't recommend it.
inbreeding (or line breeding) usually occurs when a breeder is trying to enhance or improve a desirable trait, but it can have eventual drawbacks and produce weak or otherwise unfit offspring.

I'm in a real pickle.

What should I do when all I have are 2:1 (F1) Ch. (T) wiedersheimi wiedersheimi from the same clutch and I don't know anyone in the US who is working with this species? Nor have I seen any come in for a long time. So should I just wait and hope for others? Or try breeding them together?
