New to breeding and not sure about it just yet maybe another year or 2 till i really make a decision. First question how old should a ball python be before breeding. Whats a good healthy weight for the female to make sure she will not have problems. Can you breed the same offsprings together or should you keep them apart? Can babies stay together is so how many and how long and how big should the setup be? thanks in adavance for any advice
 
Females are generally around 18 Months old when they hit maturity males can be as soon as 7-9. Weights are the numbers that most breeders go for, generally 1200 grams for a female, and 500 for males. And you can breed offspring together but I would generally avoid it unless the offspring have a desired trait that no others have.
 
Oh and babies can stay together but it tends to cause feeding problems, they certainly do better separate. Babies can be in a 6qt tub while hatchlings then I move them to a 28qt then a 38qt for adults. Hope that helps!
 
thanks for the reply. the reason i was asking about siblings was incase i get some crazy morph/color and wanna keep it going. again thanks for the help
