now, i am very novice, but i've read in the faq that 500g/1ft, or bare minimum of 1500g for a female (no powerfeeding). i'd be afraid of anything less considering it is all i have seen.
i would think less would be harder for a female to develop..she needs that fat to create eggs, correct?

like i said, i'm not 100% but that is what i have always seen and am going by.
