If she continues to eat, she could very well make it up over 1000g. I don't see why 1000g makes a difference, she will not be breedable at that size. She'll need at least 1500 g on her to be even close to breedable.

well if she eats anything like my female yearling then there shouldnt be a problem with her getting up to even 1500 grams. my female is only a year old she eats 2-3 frozen thawed rat crawlers every wendsday she is almost 3' and i dont have a scale so i amnot sure on weight but ill post a pic so you can see the type of build she has . but any ways she gained atleast 500 grams in her first year and she was only eating mice for most of that time.best of luck. she is the large of the two and the smaller is my male both are het for an unproven blood line of axanthics from rafael at the reptile dungeon their dam is pictured on his site so im hoping for the best.
