My Pregnant Platy

[TheSims3Dude]

Hey all!

I recently bought a platy, and I believe she's pregnant, (actually two of em) So I was going to share some pics week by week during their pregnancy, and pics of the fry after!
Got any names for these girls? (and the male that's in there with them) Oh ya, how far along to you roughly think they are? Just so I know,

This one's a really good pic of 'em!

[TheSims3Dude]

I dont think two weeks im thinking the really fat one is farther along than that. I bought a pregnant molly and a week later I had 38 fry. Keep us posted

 

[TheSims3Dude]

Okies! I'll definitely keep you guys posted! and if I'm off this pregnancy, I'll know for sure how far along they are the next one! (based on when their last drop was)

 

[TheSims3Dude]

I finally got names for em!
The male is: Sir Edward Huntington
Sunset Platy: Sophie
Mickey Mouse Platy: Elise

2 weeks pregnant maximum....

See my signature for more info on knowing when your livebearer will drop.

I'd say about 2 weeks along. Oh, and nice names.

 

[TheSims3Dude]

Okies! so about another 2 weeks probably, thanks you two! ^^

Here's some more pics of my platys, (from today) so 2 days later, their starting to get quite big I think, I can't tell who looks due first, can you tell?

Lovely looking platys- i reckon the lighter female looks more rounded

Good luck with them

 

[TheSims3Dude]

Here's some pics of my platies from today!
The lighter one is huge and I can see a white tube with black inside (birthing tube?)
she's been hiding in the ornaments all last night and this morning, here's some of the other female first:

and here's the lighter female that's been hiding:

What do you think?

 

[Harlequins]

She looks pretty close,maybe to drop in the next few days

 

[TheSims3Dude]

Okay! I took her out of the trap, just cause she didn't look like she was gonna have em (yet!)
but like you said, she definitely looks like she will in the next few days! ^^
I just put her in the trap when she's big like that, because I have endler fry, and I don't want to mix her fry up with the endler fry, got any suggestions? what will she be like before giving birth? other than hiding, the birthing tube, etc, I haven't had platies in a good year or two, so I forget what it's like to breed them.
