Well, I just received some really nice GBR's on Thursday. They are half wilds and are about 5 1/2 months old. They've been in my possession for 3 days and have laid eggs already (pretty common with rams). I haven't even really gotten the chance to look at them since I had finals Thursday and Friday, then I immediately went to work after my Friday final, worked until 3:30 in the morning on Saturday, got not even 4 hours of sleepm and started work again from 7:30 in the morning until 7:30 at night. Been pretty busy and haven't had much time to pay attention to them When I was looking at them around 6:00 tonight I noticed that one female looked like she was ready to lay. I emailed the breeder that I got them from and told him how cool this was and that I'd email him when the female laid. Went over to a friend's house and just noticed that she had spawned. The male is not letting her too close to the eggs. These breeders were parent raised so it'll be interesting to see what happens with the eggs. I'm assuming that they were fertilized since the male is involved in protecting the eggs. Anyway, enough with the talk. Here's some pics:

Tried for a better angle...no success lol.
