If the sire is yet to be born you can not say if it would work or not as you have not seen him to know. This is very very important as you will intensfy the qualitys or falts they will have.
Linebreeding or in this case inbreeding can be a very valuble tool if you know what you are doing. First by linebreeding you will set a very specifice Genotype however this can be good or bad depending on what cariteristice are present in the sire and dam.
Also I would never breed 1/2 siblings from the same Dam. Sire is a bit differnt but I will not get into that as it is a bit complicated to explane and most who are not into breding do not quite get it. Not that you could not or would not.
Anyway if you are thinking about linebreeding and have not been breeding for many many years and realy understand what is happening they I would not do it. When linebreeding you really have to cull rothlessly and be very very picky at the stock you use. I have been breeding for over a decade and have very good luck at doing it and I am very carful when I use linebreeding in my program and I also have several really good friends who have also been breeding for 30-40 years and really understand this also.
