Breeding question
I have a WC male Ball Python who is about 8-9 years old and I want to buy a female to breed him with but the female I am looking at is only 2 months old.
I read that a female can breed after two years if they weigh 2000 grams and 4ft. So by then my male will be at least 10-11 years old, is that too old or will he still breed?
Tjanks for the help.

Re: Breeding question
He should be fine to breed. Pythons can live 30 years. Some breeders have females 20+ years old still laying clutches.
Just make sure you keep them seperate, until she is of size and it's time to breed.
