Both my 1.0 Bananas are May/June 2013 hatches and at 400g+ they are locking with plugs. I had a 2012 Enchi Fire locking at 380g with plugs last season. He's a Pro now.

I've been on bp.net a while and usually breeders say not to breed males until they're at least a year old and 700 grams. Is this not true anymore?
