I have seen references to a wide spectrum of acceptable breeding sizes for females in this, and other, forums. Most agree that 1600g or larger is ideal. Would like to hear examples of experience with females in the 1300g range that are eating heavily and still growing. For example, is it ok to breed with the expectation that they will beef up more before laying, or should one wait to breed later in the year before introducing males? Thanks for the input.
