Age or weight to breed?

What are the normal age/weight to breed Netherland Dwarf's and Lionhead's?
Thanks

Breeding at 6 months of age is considered the norm. Lionheads & Netherland Dwarfs mature sexually around 3-4 months old, but it is considered best to wait til 6 months old. I had a Lionhead doe kindle at 4 months old because she was not separated early enough. She had a single kit that was really big (looked like a fetal giant to me) & did not make it.

I agree with TherapyBunnies, I wait till they are 6 months old to breed.
