>>Well you should want to know how often it's been line bred because eventually you'll start to get defectsm like infertility and kinked babies and more.

Are kinks and infertility due to line breeding?
Are there documented, known cases?

We haven't been able to get new mexicana blood into our projects since the 80s (except for a border confiscation or two).......And our original breeding stock that did make it to the US wasn't a large number of snakes......
We have been line breeding them for decades without any defects due to line breeding........

I've always heard this but I have yet been convinced of such......
