Yellow ray breeding video/pics

No, I was in China for a bit there, and then the shipper has been on trips too. lol - it's just getting our timing right. I'm not worried.

Are these 2 other pregnant ones beside the one in the previous pic or did you bring these in that way?

Previous female plus an additional one... both bred on display by the same male. All three (two females and one male) are F1 animals.

No new news?

 

[Zoodiver]

Not yet. I rush to that holding tank first thing every day to make sure I didn't miss it over night. We're watching very closely now. You can still see the pups movement on both girls. I'd guess 3-4 pups each.
Both are eating like champs and swimming a lot.

i dont blame you for rushing to the tank, I would do the same thing. Thats good all is well. Do you have video 24/7?

 

[Zoodiver]

Nope, only checks by staff through out the day. We're really on top of it. Other than our spotted eagle ray, these girls are the priority to watch right now.

i didnt realize so much time has past since the last post on this, and nothing yet, right?

Add ONE more to the knocked up list.... we pulled the male away, he's doing too good of a job.

You could hire him out to others or other zoo's

Got some good imagining done and will say these pups have a ways go bake before the cake is done.

Here's a current video showing the pups moving.
