What are the odds of a mother Chin actually breeding with one of her own kits after they are fully grown and mature?
 
If it's male and in her cage...............bout 99.99999999%. Neither of them will care if they are related.
 
Are you referring to the random chance that someone is irresponsibly breeding petstore chins and the chins just happen to be related, or that if put in the same cage they will breed?

Sheri is right, chins, actually animals in general, don't hold the social restrictions about breeding that humans do. Actually some humans don't even, if I recall correctly some peoples still interbreed. Aristocrats used to marry cousins, and even sister/brother to "keep the blood pure".
 
In breeding is a practice that was used for years to create and stabize breeds and mutations in animals. They don't care about realatives.

Animals don't know to say, "Put that back in your pocket around me son".:thumbsup:

Sorry been spending to much time on chinnie debate. Needed the humor.
