hes old enough to go now!
i have a 350 gram mojave breeding right now. its not recommended using a 300 gram male but 500 is no problem. just watch his weight closely if he starts losing weight then separate him from all females. not even within sight or smelling distance...lol if hes only going to one or 2 females then he should be ok dont wear him out by trying to plug him into to many females as you may burn him out. my male is still eating but if he wasnt i wouldnt even attempt it. also is your male producing sperm plugs? if he isnt then id at least wait till he is. youtube or google sperm plugs if your not sure what im talking about.
