Congratulations!!!!
Thanks Pauline...I'll want to see the spawn before celebrating.....angels are so great, they make you feel like a kid...over and over and over..again. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D wheeeeeeeeeeee

Thanks....yep, that's them....now to wait for her to get going......more protein tomorrow.... ;D ;D
Congratulations. I know you've been waiting for these. Wishing you the best with them.
Thanks Willie, it'll likely be a long courtship??....they took a few days to get it together last time....interesting to watch them lip lock, and shove each other around...she really gets him worked up......LOL
That's awesome Jon, They are such pretty angels.
He's been after her this morning, but I think she's not quite ready...I'll have to watch closely..he can be a real jerk..
Good luck with them
Well........they've spawned...about an hour ago.. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D....I'm tickled pink.. ;D ;D ;D ;D
Very nice. Continued success with these two and their spawn.
Congratulations Jon. Best of luck with the spawn. ;)

CONGRATS!!! ;D
Thanks gang, for as long as we've been doing this..we still get a tingle of excitement when things happen......you can feel yourself smile ;D
I know the feeling.....
Dennis
Congrats Jon. I'm very happy for you. ;D ;D ;D
Congrats!!
congats Jon! Did you pull them?
Yes, and I got the snot beat out of my hand....I really believe that they might have raised this time...they'll get the next one tho, and I hope raise them...if they're still not too mad at me.... ;D
So far, no 'whities'....all's looking good, except the pair...by their actions they're still pretty irate towards me....splashed me twice this morn'n....these two were never splasher's either...til now, that is....
...they've been wiggling like crazy....and flipping off the slate, looks like I need to poof the rest off and get that thing out of there.... ;D
...they be poofed. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D....now we wait......dum de dum de dum.......
