I have a question for some of the more experienced breeders. What is the maximum size difference in male and female for breeding? I have a female that is 8.5' and 35 lbs paired with a male who is about 4.5'. I know he is small for her but was the only pairing possible for these two. He is trying but I don't know if he will be able to get around to her. I am not able to post pics because I don't have an account anywhere but could send some in an email. The male is a possible super ghost and the female is an albino. Thank you in advance for any help.

I don't think size matters that much, as long as he is mature enough to breed.

You shouldn't have any problems.
That size difference isn't that terribly dramatic, whats funny is when you see a 3 1/2' male on a similar sized female, its almost comical.
Good luck.
