breed this gal later this summer?

My albino gecko is 14 months old. She lost her tail around December. It is growing back nicely her tail has grown a bit more then when this pic was taken.
Anyways, do you think she will be good to go to breed around August? She isnt a big girl to begin with her sister wasnt either.
IF not how long should a wait?
forgot to ad that the green lid is around 2 inches, This picture was taken in February

weight is alittle more important then age. I would get a scale and get a good weight on her before breeding.

alright weighed her

shes between 40-44 grams. (she doesnt like to be out of her cage)
so by summer or the end of summer she should be up to weight right?shes finally deciding that dubias are tasty and is scarfing 2-3 med size ones a day. (I dont know where she puts it

I'd say in 2 months she'll be good to go. If she's eating well and such she will be in good shape for breeding.

alright thanks so mid summer would be the best time. I dont want to cause any problems by breeding her early but i dont want to wait forever either since i had her since she was able to be shiped. she would of been bred already but since the cat accident(loosing her tail, husband thought the cats wouldnt try to get in the gecko cage) I figured id give her unil the mid summer time.

If she reaches 50 grams before 2 months I'd say breed her, if she is around 45grams after the 2 months I think she would still be fine..

the longer u wait the better due to that lack of tail. If she goes off feed while egg laying she has no reserves. My 2 cents
