WTF is with these things?

Been seeing movement in my female for over 60 days now.

Maybe these MMs (Midget Marbles) hold longer????

Everyone elses still holding?
Ive been keeping track of all 4 and they are all holding. I would think any day now....Its odd since almost all had movement at ime of shipping, and for the first two that was 2 months back now. Whats the norm to see movement for the first time again?

I've heard 50-60 days after you FIRST see movement. My 60 days was up Sat I believe (60 since arrival). Was there movement when she showed up @ your place? That would tack on what another 7-10 days?

I would think that due to the small size they'd hold shorter, not longer. :nilly:

Maybe they'll pull a Tigger and leave us waiting another 50 days. :ROFL:

Maybe we'll all learn something :naughty:
 
Good things come to those who wait so maybe they will pop out a half dozen BD pups. That would really throw science for a loop.
 
Yours (Alan) is the only one that 'looked' preg, but I had yet to see movement on as I told you at the time. She was pretty big though, bigger than a couple of the others that there was definite movement on. By that note, I could see yours being the last to pop, but the other 3 there was definite movement at import time.

As I've mentioned inother threads, It's very common for these Male MM to come in fully rolled at 7", that and these girls preg at these sizes, does lend credence to the theory of a smaller MM variety. With that, and moms size, I wouldnt be surprised with the pups being smaller than what we are used to seeing in our tanks.
 
wow this is cool

good luck to everyone

i usually say about 60 days after the first signs of movement so it should be any day now

gotta love the suspense!!!
 
I've been preaching the small Marble bit for years now. It falls on deaf ears. They're just Motoros. ;)

I have a pair that has been breeding for probobly close to a decade. Both are right at or UNDER 16" across.

Laz I hope you're all over tracking down exactly where they're coming from. :)
 
mine is still holding an my only theory for that is that we saw the movement earlier as they were fresh imports and were skinnier so its easier to see the movement so maybe we are seeing it earlier than we should. i figured with the 60 day rule you hear alot about it was going to be a week or two ago. but im still waiting. cant wait to see wich one pops first.
 
Ya mine is getting really big and the movement is very noticeable now. Who ever gets pups first should def update :)
