Coastal carpet breeding size

Hello guys I have a question about breeding carpets. I have a coastal female that is arrpund 3 years of age and is right at about 1700g in weight. She would be my first time breeding carpets and I was just wondering if you guys think she is of acceptable size to breed this year? I Will be breeding her to a jungle jag male I have. Thank you guys for any response.

Not much help when it comes to weight - I don't think I ever weighed my carpets...but I don't think I ever had one I felt was ready for breeding at 3 yrs, either. While I am sure that somebody will come along that can answer your question as posted, it might be helpful if you posted a couple of pictures (including a good size reference)

Thank you for the input I'll try to take some pics a little later and post them.

She is in good health and has some good size to her. She is about 6-7 foot.

So what do you guys think?

I typically put my carpets through the breeding trials starting at 2.5 yrs, most of them go then. They don't have to as big as you've seen, they breed a lot smaller then you'd think. Typically 5 ft and as big around as a soda can is a good starting point.
Oh and she looks plenty big enough!
