the males and females when i get them? I wouldn't mind them having a litter when they are ready, but realisticly, would it be bad on their health? Remember they are going to be brother and sister.

It's very exciting to get new degus and tempting to let them mate. However, most of the people on this forum will highly recommend that you separate the girls from the boys right away (once they're 6 weeks old) and especially if they are brother and sister.
You should read for yourself in "Breeding and Baby Care" --> "Inbreeding".
