Josh Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Hey everyone, I recently got some shrimps from @Mr. F as a birthday gift. All shrimp are doing well but he did tell me he threw in a berried female. Her eggs are yellow but will they change color as the days go by? I've seen some with green eggs and some with red so I'm a bit confused. Could I get some help? Thanks. Mr. F 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jem_xxiii Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Usually the eggs tend to be yellow, but I have heard of people who have reported those other colors as well. No clue why that happens, but I am sure that some of the shrimp experts will chime in. So what kind of shrimp did you get? Josh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some RCS, great shrimp since I'm just getting started. ohmiko 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohmiko Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Mine had yellow eggs! Should be fine. Josh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. F Posted July 22, 2016 Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Glad she didn't drop the eggs in shipping! She's, at most, a couple weeks along so hopefully you'll have many more than just the eight in a couple of weeks.. I hope they acclimated nicely and are doing well!

Josh Posted July 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Some good news everyone. Went to feed the RCS tank and to my surprise I found another berried female who has green eggs while the other female has yellow eggs. Pretty interesting Mr. F 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
