Help Needed! Who's Pregnant..... (pics)

[les_251181]

I've taken some better photos of my girls. Could you have a look and tell me what you think? if you can try and say how long you think they are along and how long left.

Two are in the breeding trap as the male Swordtail keeps pecking their bottoms and annoys them.

also, theres a pic of the suspected pregnant dalmation molly.

the green sword tail and orange swordtail in the breeding trap:

Orange swordtail on her own:

Les, you are in the best position to actually observe them and judge it. There is a link called Ready to pop in my signature that links to a useful thread that will help you recognize a near term livebearer.
