Yep, it's been done. I've heard some people call them cateaters.

I'm not a boa person, buy i'll take a guess that 3-4 years old is when they are ok. I did keep boas at one time, but i never did look into breeding them.

Yes, they are called Cateaters. As far as the Boas, I'm not sure theres an exact age but for the female, size plays a big role in it. If she doesn't have the size no matter what age, it could be real bad for her. Males are able to breed younger and smaller than the females. I hope that helps.

Just because it CAN be done, doesn't mean it SHOULD be.

Housing snakes together, especially different types of snakes, is just looking for trouble.

Boas are actually all about the age, size is a minimal factor, but if they aren't mature, bad things can happen. 42 months is as young as a female boa should be bred.

Well I stand corrected. I was always told the female needed to be good size to try. Sorry for the miss info.

Boas....

Some Males will breed at 1 year old. Many will start at 2 years old and a few hold out untill they are three.

Females I think Age plays a huge part in this also. Along with size.

I like females 3 years old over 12 pounds. Some say 10 pounds is the mark and they will breed at this size. My smallest breeder is a het anery 3 years old and 17 pounds. The next smallest is about 25 pounds. Largest about 40 pounds.

My males are all over 2 years old that bred this year with my best breeder being a double het ghost (Orange Tail) 2 year old male. He is a machine. lol
