:She should at least be 14 months old, eating regularly, and have good weight. An animal at that age should also be between 7-8”

My females are usually 7-8 inches long when they are ready to breed. I feel that size is more important to breeding than age- within reason. If you have a 10-12 month old female that is large enough and heavy enough, she's probably ready to breed. I'd say she should way at least 30 grams, preferably more. My 2-3 year old females weigh between 32-65 grams. Some of them are real monsters!
