    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

hey all,

a while ago I wanted to get into working with breeding Irain Jaya carpets, but I have lost the interest.

I have someone interested in my female Ij, having issues pricing her out, but what is really holding me back is if she is of breedable ( or close too it- I havent been feeding her as if I was gonna breed her) size.

I try google, get different results. I just dont have the knowledge on the specifics about the Ij breeding since I was in no rush at all. ( aka- didnt get that far yet)

She is at 1400 grams rounding down, and has to be 5ft ( i am 5 ft 8 inches, and she proly s longer then me, but that is not the most acurate length measuring.

So, anyone able to help me out? I appreciate it.
 
Honestly, I don't think I ever paid attention to weights on carpets. Post a pic, with something common for size reference (mainly interested in girth), and I'll toss my 3 cents worth into the discussion.
 
I will toss my 2 cent in How old is she that is the main question you can get better breeding results with a mature female then a young one
 
Im interested as well, been thinking about other species to get into and I cant find much on breeding weights
 
i successfully bred a 2 1/2 yr old IJ female that was 1600 grams. she gave me 12 perfect eggs. She had great body condition and had the look of a snake who could handle breeding which was more important to me then what the actual numbers were.

Agreed.
The weight fixation is largely a BP thing, IMO.
