Last night my pregnant guppy finally gave birth after way too long of being pregnant, only one survived though :( because i thought she had gotten too stressed and had aborted, i put her back in the big tank and this morning I woke up and there was a tiny little pair of eyes staring back at me... when he gets bigger he'll be turtle food but right now i'm happy to have a little baby animal to take care of, wish i was awake when it happened so more would have lived. She still looks pretty big though, any chance she will have more? I've got her separated right now just in case.

I think they just keep spitting out babies a couple at a time. :lol: The babies are really cute though. That's one of the coolest things about raising animals are the babies. :D

Will she have more? Yes.

I had a female once that got pregnant and had babies 4 times after the male had died. When the male fertilizes the female, there is enough to last 5-6 batches. And they usually start breeding at about 3-4 months old.

YES, YOU WILL HAVE MORE BABIES, ;) we have about 20 guppies and they reproduce FAST, female can keep having babies 6 times in roll with out male,
like Teaxasjags said,
you need to have a low grass area where babies can hide,usally mother don't eat them but other fishes may 8)
