I posted this in breeder section with no replies, so I thought I would try it here.

Cricket is only 11 months old. She had her 1st heat last month. She is 5 lbs. and I've had her to the vet to ask if she was too small for breeding. He said 5lbs. and up would be safe, and her build was very good. I'm still not sure If I will, but I have questions about stud service. What should I expect? What kind contract should be drawn up. What should be on the contract? Do you pay for a stud fee when they get together , or when she's confirmed pregnant, or if she has a litter? Does anyone have a contract like this that I could copy or read? I want to know everything I need to know before I even consider breeding. I take this seriously and want to be as informed as possible so please respond with questions and/or any information.
thanks in advance.
