What do the experts think about this deal of buying this 11 year old grandpa?
Chihuahua Mtn. Kingsnake
Male
Hatched: CB1997
LPK001M
$100 SALE! $65 One of our founder males and a proven breeder many times over, we’ve just got too many adult males here.
I am not going to buy this fellow, as I’ve got other plans, but am curious as to your opinion on this.

You don’t think he is too old? In snake years he is middle aged; would he be past his prime as a breeder?

Some breeders say 8 yrs. for females and 10 yrs for males is a good time to stop breeding them.

Well, that’s what I thought. He is an awfully pretty animal, but possibly his seed would not be as vital as the seed from a younger male.
