I plan on just using large tubs for all sizes just so I don't have to continually upgrade and evolve according to my numbers, is that an okay thing to do?

For breeding, I'll probably buy babies and raise them up to sze, and then just put some together and see what happens. How long do ball pythons take to mature? And I believe I'm going to pick up a mini fridge and convert it into an incubator sometime soon, so that'll be ready. Thanks.

Hatchlings most likely would need smaller tubs to suit them, since they more easily feel insecure in large places. If you clutter up your large tub with fake leaves and multiple hiding spots, it would work.

Females take 2.5+ years to mature, or even longer. Better to wait for a female to mature than to breed a heavy but young female too early, which could result in dangers that you don't want, for both the female and the possible eggs.

Males can be bred at ~1 year old and at least 700g. Some breed them smaller and younger, but general consensus is that it's safer to breed at least at this age and weight.
