Blue Crayfish with Eggs ??

[nnw03]

About a week ago I got a 60 gallon fish tank. 3 Blood Parrots & Blue Crayfish. We got the crayfish home noticing she had black eggs under her tail... and all she did was hide.

Now shes out of hiding but she sticks her tail end in a corner and moves the eggs around and they are an orange/white color now.

Any ideas on what's going on? Ill try to get pictures but everytime i get near she backs her butt into the corner so i cant see anything LOL

She's having babies!
Don't be sad if they all get eatin. Has she got a place to hide? Use a piece of PCV about 6 inches long to give them a chance to survive.

Bluecrayfish.com is full of good info.

Well I heard its bad if it changes colors?

She can hide and the other fish dont bother her... guess we should look into separating her so the babies dont get eaten.
