I'm pretty sure that anyone with firsthand experience with breeding ball pythons for 20 years don't visit these forums..

Ball pythons have been documented as successfully breeding well into their 30s! So most present-day breeders have a long time before they have to worry about retiring females!

Well, I have a female that I first bred when she was 14...she's 15 (16 in january!) this year and laid a 1200 g clutch...
As long as the snake looks healthy, acts healthy, and eats healthy, why not?
