    How old does a BP have to be before trying to breed Male and Female?

    I'm not completely sure, but I think it's best for females to breed around 1100+ grams. and males around 900g? Again, I'm not sure if those are the exact numbers, but it's around there.

    Spider to a pastel produces Bumblebees, Pastels, Spiders, and I think some chance of getting normals.

    Well, the age does not matter. You need to get them to the correct weight to be able to breed. A female needs to at least get to 1500 grams. Though, if you bred a small female (maybe a 2 year old snake) that weighed 1500g you wouldn't get many eggs.

    If you bred a Spider x Pastel you would most likely get Pastels, Spiders, and Bumblebees.

    Age DOES matter. It's recommended to breed a female in her 3rd winter, and about 500 grams per foot in length. Although some younger females may go - if they aren't mature, they are less likely to.

    Also, younger females produce fewer eggs.(usually) 3yrs, 1600g, that's the ticket! :gj:
