my friend who recently joined owns a unicorn colt, a chestnut Zebra, who is the cousin of one of my unicorn fillies, a normal zebra, (colt's father and filly's mother and half-siblings) and I was wondering if there was any type of genetic penalty for breeding cousins together.

If they share a relative within three generations there's a genetic penalty

The easiest way to determine the penalty is if they share a grandparent.

This is good to know ^.^ I couldn't remember right off the bat if it was written somewhere what the limit was, but considering Boneless is in one of my Unicorn's pedigree twice, I wanted to know, too.
It's good to know where the cutoff is, especially if we start coming across pets that are somehow related to ours with the genes we need.

A few bits of silver is nothing in real life...but it can be the difference between a stable expansion and limiting your breeding goals.

Here's an example, Boneless is a grandfather on both mother's side and father's side. (That Boneless, he's everywhere... -_-)
