Does it take Piebalds longer to reach breeding size?

I have a female pied pos het hypo that is over 1500 hundred grams and a 08. She could have been bigger because she did fast quite a bit but she made it. But I hear her sister is still under 1k.

Not in my experience. I have a small group of pieds, 3.2, and a large group of het females and they all have grown at normal rates. Some are picky sure, but overall I didn't see a difference.

She's a gorgeous strapping girl with a very similar overall look to a 100% het pied male I have-here's hoping.

Yeah, for sure, go ahead and breed him. My 440 gram 2009 male is producing sperm plugs.
