Finally, BTS breeding!

First, a bit of background. Last summer I rescued a couple blueys from a local collector since he no longer was caring for them. They were so emaciated that I gave them a 50/50 shot of surviving. They did survive, but they were still underweight this Winter so I didn't cool them. Anyway, both of them are males and both are starting to put on weight, but I didn't expect them to perform this year. I set one of the males down during cage maintenance today and he and a one of my girls had other things to do than just sit and walk around while I cleaned their cages:

Maybe this is a bit too close for comfort.....for everyone involved......my wife commented on the awkwardness of taking this photo....

congrats!

These guys are live bearers. No need to worry about eggs....just a bunch of blue tongued babies one morning.

Thats wonderful! How long is the gestation for these guys?

Off the top of my head I think it is a few months. I've had such lousy luck with this species that I have forgotten the expected gestation! We'll see though.
