Breeding with who..?
I know that mating (for example) a father with his daughter will follow to some genetic problems. But in what relations i can mate some canaries? A female canarie with her cousin maybe? I'm trying bringing other genes from pet stores (change genes each other) and doing it fine with my other species but i tired of that thing. Is there any relation that i can mate?

Unless you are willing to cull/kill any offspring that aren't showing the one trait that you are trying to breed for, inbreeding of any sort can be dangerous and unhealthy for the birds.
Line breeding is very complicated and you need to join a breeder group such as the National Finch and Softbill Society to find a larger group of people who can explain it to you. While I have had it explained, I am not willing to go to the extremes that are needed to properly do so.
