In my opinion, contrary to what all the breeders say, age can be quite important. 3 years is usually the miminmum to achieve any decent chance of success. Also, being a D X C, it looks like you'll have to get het to at least 2000 grams...again, in my opinion. Both Diamond and Coastal are on the larger side of the spectrum of the carpet complex. The smallest being IJs that can breed relatively well at weight as little as 1000 grams. But in the end, if the female cannot support the egg production, she simply will not ovulate.

Good luck!
