hi all.

I'm new to all this so bare with me.

I got a platy about a month ago and it's looking a bit fat. I have 3 female and 1 male platy.

I was just wondering if it was pregnant? And if so how long do you think till she will have fry??

I want to try and save as many as possible

I've attached a couple of photos

Thank you

Generally with live bearers I assume they're pregnant unless a female hasn't been around a male in 6 months or more.

The entire gestation period is 28 days start to finish, if she drops any Mark that date on your calender for 28 days from then. Some are very consistent at 28 days, some may go between 26-30 days but it's usually pretty consistent.
