I wouldn't breed any earlier than 3 years old and only if she is at least 6 feet long.

I wouldn't even to attempt breeding your female unless she is at least 3 years of age,6ft in length an at least 10 lbs of body weight.Others have bread successfully at smaller sizes but this is my own opinion an how I do my females.Good luck with your journey.Thanks Eric [hypoboa]

Perfect answers right there. And in my opinion do not try to power feed ur females to get them to 6 feet in 2 years or else they will only breed 2 or 3 times or not at all cause it rips up their insides.

for my females i wait till they are at least 3 to 5 years old and wiegh a good 30 pounds you will find that at that time when you faten them up they will through the bigger clutches bigdog has a very good point you do not want to power feed its beter off to wait then to rush right into it cause then you might take a chance on killing your breeding stock
