How big\Long does a male B-Python have to be to produce Offspring?

Mine is small but already has male "Spurs".

This is a up in the air topic. All males (even some females) have spurs from day one though thier so small their hard to see. I recomend a weight of at least 700-1000g. But some breeders will breed even at 250g or one year of age. Though this shouldn't be done to often.

I'd say no less than a furlong.

I don't even know.

Length isn't a huge issue if the animal is sexually mature and paired with a mate of proper proportions.

I strongly suggest not to breed until the suggested weight provided by titus (or wait for more opinions).

I wouldn't base sexing your snake on the presence of spurs. It is often a sketchy area of determining the sex of your snake.

The smallest female I would breed would have to be at 1.6kg or over. The males can be some what small in comparison as adults are only 600g - 1kg weight and rarily much over 1 meter if that. Sexing by spurs is null and void in ball pythons. Unlike lager pythons were the male spurs are much larger than females (though even this isn't 100%).

Probing is still the best way to sex snakes, I would also recomend that it be done at least twice on animals that probe for female as at times males will contract the herminpeins and give false results. Males can really be breed at any size, so long they are mature and heathy. Though long term breeding can weaken smaller males quickly.

I see no need to quote me and then try to refute me, titus, I have agreed with you 100%.

I will agree with the probing method of sexing, if it is done properly.

Palaeomike: I' sorry if my quoting you was taken the wrong way I was merly adding to the two points you had brought up. An am by no means trying to refute you. But only clarify the size relation and that spurs can be a good sexing method in pythons, though not in ball pythons due to thier underdevolped spurs.

OK, just clarify in the future titus. Thanks.

800 Grams is what most people will breed a male at.
