Thanks,

I remember someone asking this some time ago. If I remember right some posted they have breed females 20 years old
I'm sure you'll get some better answers but I have a girl I've had for 11 years that I estimate is 15 that seems not to have yet reached her peak. I'm hoping to breed her for at least another 20 years.

Last year I had a 22 yr old female produce offspring!
My oldest is 17, laid 10 good eggs this year.

breed some at 20 months and 1900 grams or more...
breed till they die....
which could be over 50 years......
I have seen a couple 36 and 35 year old male balls that I could have told you were 3 and you would not have known differently..
some hold up well...
and I bred mine every year....///
