Usually it means, "proven breeder". Not all snakes end up breeding for us unfortunately. Even the best snake breeder comes across a few snakes in his lifetime that just won't breed are lay dud eggs, or never lays. I have a Bubblgum Rat snake right now that is old enough, and has developed eggs but re-absorbs them. I can see the lumps and even count how many she has but then she refuses to eat and absorbs them back into her system. It drives me nuts!!
