gravid as well?

[mczoo]

my second jackson female (Dino) looks much like my first (Janet) did before she delivered. i have owned her since feb 16, 2008 pokey my male was in the same cage till february 20th. i believe that she was too young to be gravid 4 months in february?, but check the pictures out, dino looks like janet did when she was gravid

here are current pictures of dino

here is Dino's old picture

here is gravid janet

here janet is after delivery

thanks

She looks gravid. jacksons are sexually mature early.

they can be gravid though with just slugs though right, unless she actually did mate.

Sounds like slugs. They look like little chicken egg yolks.

so slugs are like unfertilized "eggs" for live-bearers? that sounds about right if so

Trace told me that if they start delivering slugs, there almost always won't be any babies along with them. You should still check just in case. Give your females privacy, though. They usually give birth in the mornings.
