We are 3 weeks old
By J-ME from the J-ME department, Section Diaries Posted on Wed Aug 29, 2007 at 01:30:42 PM PST Tags: (all tags)

Just wanting to say sorry that I have not been in here the past few days. My cousin had a healthy baby boy on Thursday morning after 18 hours of labor and I was her coach. 7 lb 1 oz 19 inchs.

My fry are now 3 weeks old and I can sex 3 of them for sure, but the rest is still a guessing game. They are getting so big.

My molly still looks pregnant but we still have nothing. I don't know if she is or not. I am still new to this so I guess that time will tell.

Mama Guppy is getting bigger by the day. We are about 15 days from her dropping fry again. I thought last night I saw her flexing but I hope that I was wrong because if she was I don't think the fry will be ready now if she has them.

Well thats all that I have to report for now.

Have a great day.
J-ME

Congratulations! I missed the birth of my nephew because I had to pick up my hubby from the airport :-(

I have one that is squared off but still nothing and I saw that she was squared off a week ago. I don't know, I am sure that the reason that I don't know is because I am use to it. Its just a quessing game right now. I keep a very close eye on them both and if I see them diliver I will pull them out. But right now i am confused...
Happy fish keeping :-)
