You may not be as far away as you think you are. My female had her first litter when she was 9".


I've heard rumors of this, but only from the guy, who knows this guy, whos old girlfriends brother could actually confirm, and couldn't be found. I'm glad to hear this from a person with actual experience.

Any tips for getting some pups out of her????


thanks

Any help, Alex???
 
I think you will be seeing pups when your male grows his claspers (the male ray's sexual organs).
This can either happen with age, or if your female is ready she will give off a hormone, which induces the growth of your male's claspers.
I was quite lucky as my male was already sexually mature and it was just a mater of waiting for my female tp grow( she was only 4" and he was 10"). This took about a year and a half.
If all goes well, and you feed them good and you do your water changes you should see the signs of mating within 6 months.:)
Best of luck,
Alex
