I have two P. Paradoxa that are probably a molt or two from adulthood. One male and one female. I'd love to breed them, but I bought them from the same vendor at the same time. The female is about two weeks behind the male in development, but it's probably pretty safe to say that they're siblings. I was wondering how big a deal it would be to breed them as long as I'm honest with anyone who ends up with their offspring. I know it's not ideal, but maybe not so terrible as long as it's not done multiple generations in a row? I mean, I'm sure my roaches frequently inbreed. Hard to avoid with them. They seem fine. Just not sure how common, uncommon, or looked down upon it would be.
