if you are a breeder.....3 years is most beneficial to the person breeding. that way the most amount of eggs are laid and there is a higher chance of them hatchin

if you are a pet owner...8 years is possible although you would be putting an old dragon through some tough times, and you'll get the opposite effect for a younger dragon ( ie...less eggs and more slugs)

ALSO, it depends on how you cycle your dragons and how many cluthes she has per year. some people really abuse their females by making them breed twice per year
