General guide is 2 winters.

I don't follow the 1500 g guide either. Some girls are sexually mature but don't ever get that large no matter how much they eat.
As long as the mature female has proportional weight to length, it should be fine to breed. For example: breeding a female that is 1200 g, but is short and fat is safer than breeding a skinny1800 g female. As long as the female has nice body condition and proper fat reserves, a lighter female can be bred safely.

I'm sure you can also breed a 900g female, and things can work out fine.
You can also drink before you drive, and not crash. You can smoke and never get cancer.

I have yet to meet a professional breeder, or read from experts that DON"T say, "under 1500g is increased risk to mother and eggs.

It should not go unoticed that the OP lost more than 1/2 the first clutch.

Of course, your snake, your choice
