The real key point here is at some point the process will break and nobody knows when. Babies from unrelated parents are F1. Breeding two siblings creates F2 offspring. Breeding two F2 siblings produces F3 babies and so on. I know of one BCI breeder that at le=ast I spoke to him he had made it to F5/F6 without problems. WAY further than I would be willing to go.

By selling sibling pairs your buyers "should" be OK but if your customer did the same thing (selling pairs) those would be F2's producing F3's........
