How old is too old to breed a female BP?

[Redneck_Crow]

Here's what we're going to do with her--

She's a great "first snake" because she is not at all tempermental or fussy and she is very forgiving of someone who might want to handle a snake too much or who might lack confidence. As a pet she is a gem. She is the kind of snake that might get someone started off well into reptiles. So we're checking out a few older kids who have said they would like to have her, and if one of those kids ends up getting her I'll help them out with getting her set up in her new home and any questions or problems that might arise. If the bug bites and they decide that they're going to breed someday, I'll help them out with that too.

If we can't find the perfect home for her that way, I'll take her in before her owner goes to school. I'll use her for breeding. I'll keep her current owner updated on how she is doing, and if he finds that somewhere down the road he is able to keep her again then he can have her back.

I kinda know how her owner feels--I had to give up a horse I loved when I went off to school. It would have meant a lot to me to know that he was still there for me when I got out, but that didn't happen. With any luck, the guy that owns her might someday be able to take her back and keep her for the rest of her life. And who knows? He might even end up with a little or two out of his old girl to keep too.
