According to some, like the Love's cornsnake book, females must be at least 30 inches to breed. According to others, snakes must be at least 3 years old. It seems to be a sensitive subject as some feel very strongly about the 3 year thing and others feel very strongly about size being the only factor of real importance.

So, if you feel she's big enough, go for it...if she's too young, it will either not happen at all, she might have difficulty laying, or it will be just fine. It's anyone's guess! LOL! Good luck!
