When will boas quit breeding?
Eventually every couple gets so tired of each other that they stop going at it. Is this the case for snakes or not? I am inquiring due to the fact that this year I picked up a 2014 Sunglow 66% poss het moonglow female. Well I also have the opportunity to pick up a 2009 motley 100% het albino 50% poss het anery. Will an 8 year male breeder still breed? Or at that point should he be retired?
On a completely different issue. I am switching to animal plastics T8 cages with proproducts radiant heat panels. Should I run multiple cages off one vivarium electronics proportional or should every cage have its own thermostat?
I greatly appreciate the help Ive gotten from this site.

He's still a youngster by boa standards. Snakes can and will reproduce until the day they die. I have a 2011 female JCP I'm raising up for the sole purpose of pairing her with a 1996 hatch virgin male. At 18 years he's still in great form and I have little doubt he'll sire some clutches.
