weight to breed a female vs age

If a female is, according to the last owner, 3 yo but only 243gms would you breed her? The last owner was a breeder and this is a friend's snake now. She hasn't been bred before but the male has. Not that that is really relevant....it is her size that concerns us. At 3yo is she gonna grow much more anyway?

Just a datapoint for you... When Kathy Love listed several years worth of breeding data in the Cornsnake Manual, the original minimum breeding weight was 200g and was later rasied to 240g for better results. So... the data provided in the CSM suggests that you'd be alright with breeding a 240g 3 year old, providing she's in good health.
