She will unless you stop her from being with a male. Doesn't matter what someone recomends. Females carry dormant follicles when they are mature adults. At some point their bodies tell them it's time to reproduce, those follicles will grow at that point ready to be fertalized. Every boa is different some may breed at 5ft and some not untill 9ft. Regardless of size when they are ready they are ready.



The point is you can't make a female boa produce unless she is ready.. Whether or not you choose to try your females is up to the individual who owns her. But you could be missing it if you don't.



If she was ready in the wild it wouldn't matter if she was 4ft or 10 she is going to get bred.
