I'm just starting out and trying my hand at breeding for the first time. I have a pair of het piebalds coming to me tomorrow and I know they won't be ready to breed for a while. Does size, weight or age matter most when it's time to breed? I know all of them are a factor. Am I too late to start breeding for the first time? meaning since I know there are tons of ball breeders out there now, do I even have a shot at selling pieds when the time come or is the price going to drop so much that it won't be worth it anymore? I'm not looking to get rich off this, but I would like to make a profit. Also, I'm going to get a boaphile 421T with the removeable divider in the center, when it's time to breed them I was planning on just removing the divider and letting them meet each other, would that work? any responses are appriciated. Thanks.

Does size or weight matter? Take a look at an article I wrote about that subject. It's on my articles page.

Hmmm. I doubt the price is going to plummet that far. Do it for the love of it, for the fun of it or even for (some of) the money - not money alone, and you'll be ok.

I'm not sure about the divider. The scent from both - to each other - could cause problems.

Good luck, learn as much as you can and have fun!
