As for size difference I have paired 600 grams males with 3000+, even a 4000 grams females without any issues.

Do you recommend not to put a male and a female with a significant size difference together for breeding because of your own experience or something you read, I would love to know since I never heard of such situation going wrong.
I only said I personally wouldn't feel comfortable with it. I know that plenty of people pair snakes of a significant difference together, but it's not something I would do until I feel I have a good amount of experience. Like, I have a 200g male who probably would have gotten the job done with my 2000g female, but I just felt more comfortable using my 800g male instead. I have that new calico pastel male that I'm just itching to get some eggs out of but I still think I'd like him to be a bit bigger still, just for my own peace of mind. I'm sure I'll get to the point where I don't mind the size difference so much, but I'm not quite there yet.
