Not necissarily how long they are. It is said that sexual maturity hits males at 500 grams; and a female at 1,000 grams (about 2.2 pounds). But I am sure if you talk to any reputable breeder, they will tell you a female should be WAY more than 1,000 grams to be considered breeding material. I personally would say 1,200-1,500 grams is a good place to start. So basically, on females, the MORE MORE MORE body weight, the better.
