My opinion is that the female Suboc should be a minimum of 40" before breeding. They are large snakes and have relatively large eggs. It takes my Subocs about four years to reach what I think is proper breeding size.
Incidentally, I also think that trying to "power feed" a Suboc is a mistake. I've heard of young Subocs just dying "suddenly" when they've been "power fed".
