Most people just blindly breed their females at 1500g.
But it's not just a set weight. You have to look at the snake's overall body condition and maturity too. A mature short chunky female at 1200 grams is a better breeding candidate than a long skinny 1800 gram girl, for example.
That 1200 gram girl has a better shot at enduring the breeding season with the better body condition and fat reserves than the skinny 1800 gram one. And some girls just never get large even though they can be a few years old.
She's definitely in good condition. Only based on pictures, she resembles the "building" pictures I've seen, except she hasn't been with any males since I got her (September I think). Not terribly long, definitely chunky. Very good weight and condition to her. I need to get some updated pictures of every one.
