I wouldnt breed them together.
But......
Are you 100% sure that carpets you have are 100% of what they were bought as?
There are a lot of them that made it into the pet trade early on that were already intergrades and hybrids, so its possible they may already be.
You can definately see a difference,
I purchased a female Coastal carpet many years ago, (from a very reliable,reputable breeder)
and over the 7 years I had it, it never got larger than 5 feet and always had more yellow then the coastal male I had bought from a dealer 2 years prior, and he was nearly 8 ft long, and very dull in comparison.
and that is not the only example of my "hypothesis" that I have seen.
whether some cheynei got mixed in, or maybe its parents had some imbricatta in them, who knows, but when you looked at the two side by side, they definately looked different.
