Hi Sam,

Yes snakes can be too old too breed but at 11 years old they are in their prime breeding age, they should be able to breed well into their 20's. Also if you are getting 11 year old Hogg Island Boas, then your Boas should be from the early 90's and have a good chance of being 100% Hoggies, Not saying that some breeders are knowingly selling Hoggs that are 100%, but the further down the import line you go the more chance of inter locality breeding you get.

I think they should be just fine, as long as they are healthy.

Good luck with them!
