I have been reading up on breeding rabbits and I am confused by the final statement here. I have read that if siblings both have good qualities you want to bring out it is ok to breed siblings. Or it is ok to breed mother to son and father to daughter. I understand this to be inbreeding. I have also read that you do need to bring in another bloodline, you can't just keep inbreeding. So in what generation does the new bloodline need to come in? I have sibling giant chins that I have not yet breed but I am planning on doing so in May of 2014 It's so confusing trying to learn the right way to do things when it comes to genetics
On the "what rabbits do you have" thread there are a couple of experts that can explain inbreeding in detail. They can be related, but if they are running loose you cannot control who is breeding with who. Good breeding is well controlled and thought out. Chocolate Mouse and Bunnylady are breeders that know a lot on this subject.
