Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Males can sexually mature as early as 3-4 months old, BUT most females would not accept such a small male. Try for a minumium weight of 45-50 g., also needs to be healthy and eating well,(some almost stop eating during breeding and it can stunt their growth) and he will have a better chance 'with the ladies'. LOL

I feel that males are sexually mature as in being able to be bred at 8-10 months of they are at an optimal weight of at least 50 grams for males.
With females I go for 12+ months and 50 grams but since males tend to be larger, I prefer for the males to be 65 grams before breeding and 8+ months.
Also if your male is of size and weight to breed, keep a check on him once he is with the ladies, males tend to lose weight when breeding and will need to be fed well just as if they are breeding females and sometimes they need to be taken from teh ladies for a few weeks to regain optimal weight and rest.

Id say at 14.9 he is 6-10 weeks old, so you have a while ahead of you!
