Mini Spawn Diary; version 2.0

[Kiarra]

They are getting more gorgeous by the day, I swear.

Congrats, Synirr! Looks like you've had one VERY successful spawn.

I think you have room for plenty more in there, just squeeeeeeeeeeeeze and they'll fit in nicely.

hi their i've been folowing this thread from the start congrats to you on some fab babies!!! there soooooooooooooooo cute!!!

can i ask where you got your tubs to jar the babies from???/ and how much they were thanks!!

 

[Andie]

What gorgeous babies! They just get more and more adorable each week- I'm living viacriously through your spawning experience, hehe

Where did you find those fantastic containers for the males? I've got a male and two female coppers on order, and I've been toying with the idea of trying for a spawn, but the fact that I'll be in my dorm room is holding me back. If I got similar containers, though, I can easily envision some DIY rack project, housing vertical towers of those babies . . . ahh, it's dangerous to dream

arrrrr there beautiful
it must be very exciting watching them growing up

 

[Synirr]

Thanks for all the compliments guys, I'm very proud of them

I got the containers at Walmart and they're just under $2 each... in fact, I'm about to go get some more in a few minutes!

 

[paige]

arrrr have you got any more pics of what they look like now?

 

[guppy_man]

ive been following this post since it started, i cant w8 to see what they look like now.
can you get pics of them in their little containers.

i especially like that massive red baby one it looks like the mum because its sooo big.



i luv it.

Oooh, 2 dollars each- I like that price I'm comparison shopping similar items in the event I do decide to breed them (having an empty 20 gal in the house is a dangerous thing) but that price sounds pretty good to me. I think that if you bulk order beanie baby boxes, after like 120 they're a dollar ten each, but tacking shipping onto that jacks the price up quite a bit. Much cheaper to trot down to WalMart and wrestle back a bunch of Tupperware, I think

Keep on updating- I love the pics and I love to see a step by step narration of the spawning experience. I find it very rewarding somehow, even though you're the one doing all the work

The last picture update on the 7th page has a few pictures of them in their containers

Some more pics I took today:

The light-bodied red one really stands out

Worm flurry! I was planning to take pics of them eating the worms, but they gobbled them down so fast this is the only one I could get!

Jarred fry:

This one is a real character!

Same fry as above

Best pic my camera has taken in a long time

Same fry

Gah they make me all melty, lol! I love the second pic you posted- there's an iridescent greeny/purple looking one on the bottom left that made my heart skip a beat. V. dark horizontal bars and a red base to his fins that just about knocked me over. If I didn't have so many on their way here already . . . I guess the only way of keeping me from overstocking on bettas is to fill every tank I've got, lol! Gorgeous!

 

[Naughtygirlrlw]

Your babies are absolutley adorable, I love the pic of the one looking right at you!
Are you planning on selling any of them?

 

[Bandit]
