I love it when this happens! I brought home a pregnant platy yesterday and she is giving me all kinds of fry this morning. So far I have a dozen in a breeding net. I guess I will have to see how many more are on their way...right now she is having a snack ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

jbrimz, they like to give birth in the middle of the night and eat their babies by morning, so perhaps you missed it? The female who gave birth is a blue mickey mouse platy. I am hoping she has some blue babies. I also have a blue male. Then I added an orange mottled looking female and a variatus type female because the male was too aggressive with only one gal in the tank. So now I managed to rescue 16 babies in total, they are eating and happy in their breeding net.

lmao its really can be changeling sometimes and you know it is real fun for me I have to sex my young guppy at only 4 weeks to separate the sexes as soon I can. They can start breeding long before there old enough and I don't want that. Very bad when your selective breeding plus its not healthy for a female to pregnant so young. ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png)
