    Well female's only ovulate when they are gravid so it vary's. Same with males I've seen 350 gram male produce sperm and I've seen 800 gram males that weren't yet.. No real solid answer to those questions.

    It's not recommended to breed females under 1500g, so you've got a while to go with her! The males can vary, breeding as small as 350g, but some will wait until they're at least twice that weight... I have one male that's been locking since he was 500g, and others who still aren't interested at over 800.
