    To our knowledge female balls can breed for their whole lives. A 30 y/o bp doesnt produce a worse clutch than a 3 y/o one. And if im wrong then someone show me some studies lol.
    I'm not talking about older bps.
    I'm talking about a young first timer breeder.
    These are just MY personal guidelines.
    I'm not saying anyone else should follow them.
    of course there are exceptions, each bp is an individual.
    I'm just saying I personally don't feel comfortable breeding a female if she's either under 3 or under 1500g. I have a 4 year old bp right now that's 1300g, she will be bred this fall because I feel comfortable.
    As far as having a 3 yr + female under 1500g then it would depend on the snake and how she's feeding and if she wants to take a male.
    That's cool if you guys have different opinions but I don't get why I'm pretty much getting grilled because I voiced my opinion. nowhere in my post did I say the op should follow it. It's all purely IMO
