dependant on age and how they are feeding.. |

I meant for minimum weights for them to start breeding. Not necessarily adult size. |

I have heard people breeding there males at 450g-ish...
The weight issue is more important for the females, due to them carrying eggs and going off there food for a few months. |

although if a male is aware of a potential mate HE could go off his food for months too............ |

Very true...but it isnt as demanding on his body as on a females. so i would have thought he wouldnt lose any substantial weight. |
