    Who told you this??

    The general rule of thumb is 1500 grams or the snakes second winter. Many people have bred smaller even. I don't recommend it but it happens.

    When females are producing follicles they eat like crazy, most of them jump out of the tub to get the rat!! Then they stop eating again...

    I say go ahead and breed her. As for the weight, the BP female needs to be at least 1200grams, but 1500grams is preferred. The safety and health of the animal should always be taken care of first.
