As a general rule, I would say they need to be 2 1/2 years old and the female should be 3ft.

Alot of people try to push the females into breeding them at 18 months but I think that's too soon. If you do that, the female will miss a year of growth and generally the eggs and clutches are small, so its not worth it.

If they were hatched in the summer of 2004, then they should be ready in the spring of 2007 if they are fed well.

Hope this helps,

Dave
