CRUELLA is STUFFED with babies!

[ocminpin]

Cruella is SOOO full of babies! I thought she was big before... This time she's WIDE too... You can't see how wide she is in pictures but I can see it from the top. I've never seen anything like it.
Her 23 day old babies are in their own 10g... It seems early to have more, but look at her!
What do you think?

I believe I'm fresh out of golf balls...
Maybe she will be one of those prolific mollies you hear rumors about having 80 fry. Eyeroll!! LOL
She and Suki are only ones that have them regularly.... Charger only had 2 batches last 5 mths.
We'll see now cause I have 2 black mollies.
Oh.... And my only male died last night... The fight he had with Cruella was just too much on Dec 30th after being in QT so long. Even tho his fin was growing back his immune system was weakened... :-(
We'll see how many months these girls will go now...

She is definately bigger than last time!!

She is definately bigger than last time!!

Insane!! I moved her to the 10g. She's only on day 24!

 

[ocminpin]

Cruella's vent seems a bit open/dialated...

Funny thing... She was very quiet earlier so I looked in on her and she was laying very still in the water... Looked closer and one of her babies from last batch was resting on her back... Just laying there like a baby monkey. So cute!
Cruella doesn't bother her fry...
She's even bigger now.. Looks PAINFUL! She looked miserable so I put my hand in the tank and she perked up coming over to get a nibble on my fingers, raising her top fin up ... I told her I understood...

 

[maestromad]

Aww your almost making me want to get a female so I can experience it!! Lol

Where do you live? LOL

 

[maestromad]

Wales, uk!!

 

[ocminpin]

I moved Cruella back to main tank. She was stressed in the 10g and not moving much... Needed more swimming room and her usual space. She'll probably feel more comfortable giving birth in there... Will just keep an eye out for fry...
She's at Day 27 and looks like she's about to explode!

post pics of the fry once they are born!

 

[paytertot]
