What's a good (read: HEALTHY) target breeding weight for an average '99 CB female?
(I'm talking sufficiently plump, not powerfed obese.)
Just curious...

Normal "pet" females that I have seen don't usually get as big as some of the females I see posted here (not that they are powerfed but there does appear to be a difference)- I would say on a steady once a week or every other week diet for a 5 or 6 year old female is somewhere around 2000-2500 grams. Also very dependant on length some do tend to grow longer than others - thus they can carry more weight without being "obese".
