I am wondering what I should do next breeding season. My female will be 2 1/2 years old by December. I am wondering if I should attempt to breed her then or wait until the next breeding season to try when she is 3 1/2 yr old. Right now, she has slowed down in growing long and starting to add mass to her body. She is 6 ft 1 1/2 in and 10 lbs. She eats chicks, rats, and I am starting to look for small rabbits. She eats every 10-14 days. What should be my deciding factor? If she has good weight by December, should I breed her? Or should I just wait the extra year and let her mature more and breed her? Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Its your snake so if you want you could breed her, but Jeff has found that breeding females at a young age tends to bring premature death.

As for the rabbits Rodentpro.com sells them at a pretty nice price.
