    Female BP breeding weight?

    My normal female is an 09. I just weighed her today, she is 1200g. Much bigger than I thought she would be. I will wait till next year to breed her however I was wondering what the best weight for a female bp should be for breeding?

    Re: Female BP breeding weight?

    Most breeders will tell you a minimum of 1500 grams. You will also hear others add that she should be at least 3 winters old. There are mixed reviews of smaller females laying but I hear it is not out of the question.
