If she had an RI this winter and had to be treated with antibiotics I wouldn't breed her this year even if she was at a mature size.

Breeding puts a lot of stress on a female, which has the potential to kill them. Antibiotics are also really hard on the kidneys. I would want to make sure she got through next winter 100% problem free, no re-occurance of illness and then MAYBE try the following year.
