good luck with your litters..i would love to see the lil guys and how many.
..feeders are interbred...and i have read articles on the syrian hamster that says that a handful of them were first caught and from there the breeding lines for our current hamsters started....of course its an article and it could possibly be true or it may not..but i have read many other similar ones...
there are a lot of side-effects from too much interbreeding but in experiments with piggies they have shown that in a certain piggle color pattern the stripe on its back was a selected trait that breeders wanted to select for and so they interbreed piggies and saw that they inherited a better stripe pattern on its back....but the length inc up to a certain pt...eventually when they took piggies that came from the general population and stop interbreeding, the next generation had even longer stripe patterns then the previous inbred ones..i think the pt of this experiment was to show that perhaps there wont necessarily be a problem in the first generation of inbreeding...but if continued the flaws will really start to show and the recessive genes will then really start to show
I believe that the length of interbreeding plays an important role and thats where we see most of the obvious problems and side effects of interbreeding
