Is my mickey mouse platy pregnant

[okibbee]

I got my mickey mouse platy a bit more than a week ago and she's paired with another female and a male, she's gotten really big and hides in the corner. Is she pregnant?

one can always assume that livebearers are always pregnant. and yes she is definatly pregnant.

If livebearers are put with a male it will be a baby factory! Yes defo pregnant. I'd say about one week away so if you want to keep the fry I would recommend getting a breeding floating box for the platy. Can I have a clearer photo of the platy??

i must also add that livebearers have the ability to store sperm for a period os six months and therefore they can getr pregnant without the male present,

That's correct, but they won't have as much fry as they would with a male
