breeding brazilians

michiel1981 Aug 06, 2004 07:03 AM

Hey

I was wondering how big and how heavy brazilian rainbow male and female need to be to breed, i read stories that they are breedable at 2,5 to 3 years of age but not how heavy or tall they need to be which is what i think more important.

greats,

michiel

Michiel,
.. Female BRBs need to be around 5.25 feet long and weigh around 3.25 pounds to breed. A pound heavier and 6 inches longer is better. Males can be smaller.
