How do I breed two red tailed boas?

Question

how old should they be, how many babies do they have, what special things should I do in advance, (best answer to who ever can answer all of those questions)

Answer 1

Leave them for alone for a while and see if they like each other. IF SO LOOK UP WHAT YOU NEED TO DO.

Answer 2

Well its either 20 or 50 eggs once the eggs are hatch put the mom and the eggs in a container

Answer 3

they should be 2 to 3 years before they are ready to breed. they will have between 10 and 50 young.

Answer 4

They can be ready to breed between 2-3 years of age and 4-6 feet  in length. Many breeders cycle there snakes with a month darkness and cool down periond in November-December and take the snakes off feed just before this time, then bring the tempature back up. Boa Constrictors are Ovoviviparous, or "Live-Bearing" Snakes producing up to ~60 young ,but ~30 is average. Baby boas are born live. This is in contrast to the majority of other snakes, which are egg laying so you will not need an incubator. This aspect of husbandry requires even greater care while a female boa is gravid or pregnant. We must ensure proper husbandry during this stressful time for the female. Unfertilized ova will result in an orange, sweet potato looking "slug". Some slugs are common during the boa constrictor parturition (birthing process).

You will need to house several young snakes preferably individually with the proper setup.

Juveniles should be feed after their fist shedding, 1 appropriate sized mouse(pinkies) twice week (3-4 days). Adults should be fed 1-2 appropriate sized prey items once a week to every 14 days. Appropriate size is matching the prey to the girth (largest / fattest part) of the snake.

Here is a good online care sheet that covers breeding and goes into far more detail then I have room to write here, it is in PDF format and can be down loaded.
