Will Inbred Convicts Show Signs Of Inbreeding?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
If it's only one generation which is inbred its not likely but after a few generations its possible.
 
in my personal experience they start showing birth defect after 5th gen

so dad and mom

babies

they baby x dad

then babies

then baby x dad etc...

keep the org mom or dad and breed the babies to it 5 different spawns
 
wait so if I get babies from one batch and i grow out the babies then i breed the babies to another convict from the same batch will that make deformities? here its hard to understand what im trying to say, ill make a chart

16 convict fry from same batch>8 or so pairs> couple batches of fry>then take those fry and breed them to convicts in the same batch

okay if you dont understand this heres another explanation
so i get 16 convict fry from the same batch, then pair them off.
then i take the babies from one pair, and breed them to another convict that came from the original batch of fry.

Grandparents (original batch)> Babies (have babies)> then those babies from the original fry breed back to another convict from the first batch, therefore they will not breed with parent convicts but, they will breed with "brothers and sisters" of their parent convicts. So if the fry breed with their "aunts and uncles" will they have deformities?
