Pregnant Platy

[Platy lover]

Does my platy look pregnant and if so can you tell me how far along she is? I am not going to be home this weekend and I don't want to have to worry about her giving birth. http/www.flickr.com/photos/67537901@N02/6522537987/in/photostream

She's due any day my friend... Her stomach has squared off which is a tell tale sign that they are due.

Well I hope she gives birth tonight then. ^.^

As Paradise stated, she should give birth any day now. My guess is she will drop anywhere from 20-35 Fry. I wish you luck with the drop!

Wow thats a lot of fry. My other platy gave birth to only 10 live fry and I hope they all survive this time.

If you want them to survive you could put them in a tank of their own if you have an extra cycled tank, or you can get a floating trap to put them in for a month or two till their a safe size to swim with adults in your tank. Good lucky and let us know how its goes.

I will let you know about it and I put her in the breeders tank a few minutes ago since her vent started to get wider
