For me I have had a few babies from my birds.
Whiteriver had some baby squabs with his old wife ''Whitefeather'' they where so cute, soft and yellow lol.
I did have a fish that had some babies, sadly non lived.
Baby pigeons are pretty much the only babies I have had around here.
How bout you?

Before I was born, my parents had 2 litters of english setters, I am glad that there more educated now about breeding and know about all the homeless pets being pts.
So I chose other because none of my pets that are alive now have had babies.

Nope, and they never will. Not until all of the unwanted animals in this world have homes.

Yep, I used to have two Roborovski hamsters called Marble and Flanighan. We thought they were both boys, until one attacked the other. When we took them to the vets, Marble was proclaimed female, and 16 days later, Swizzels, Squiggles, Squeaky, Peppy, Sherbert and Lemon arrived. ;)

Bonnie came to me a pregnant stray/feral cat. She had and raised her 4 babies here in her (my) home.

I have had a litter of baby rabbits....when I was young and too stupid to know any better. I wouldn't do it again.
Hazel (my hamster) was pregnant when I got her, but she aborted and ate the babies pretty soon after she arrived.
yup, I used to breed Gerbils. also Missy(RB) had 2 litters of Guinea piggies in my house, only the first litter was intended, with a nice size litter of 3, Poppy(RB), Patch(RB) and Smores. the second litter was accidental, basicly Missy's pregnant with those 3 was very odd and we got very confused about when the heck she was due..IF she was even due(one minuts she would look very preggo and the next she was look totally normal so we hadent known if she was preggo, did she abort, was it a falsey or what) well she threw us off so much that when she did give birth her nursery cage was not ready so the male got her again, that one was a normal pregnancy and she gave birth to SIX babys 3 males 3 females.

A few of my fish did, but besides that, none of my other current pets have. Jesse (my past Dachshund) did, but she came to us pregnant.

No, but Oslo was lined up to before the owner moved several states away. He's probably going to get his Grand Champion title if I show him a few times a year, and he has such good type.

I voted other. My step-furkids, Madison and Maly have both had litters. Madison is an airedale and had two litters for Jolee Aire kennels. She's 6 now and spayed. And Maly is a yorkie who was rescue from a puppy mill approx 13 years ago and probably only had one litter before that.
I've asked Dayna if she has any pictures of them on the computer she can send me- so yes, you might see the stepfurries soon.

Yes, Buffy, my Chihuahua, had a litter of pups about four years ago. They were really beautiful. She can't have anymore now, because I had her spade right after that. My mother has one of the pups.
Willie :)
My neighbor's cat Stone had kittens a long time ago. Back then, we had, I think, 4 cats, Sassy, a female tabby, Sunshine, a female orange tabby kitten, Precious, a female grey tabby, and Sweetsie, a female tortoiseshell kitten. Stone liked to bring her kittens over to our house. I remember one of her kittens was named Spooty. He was a brown tabby. I think my mom has some pictures of some of them. I'll ask her if she could send them to me later, so you can see them. :D

Several years ago we had a mouse who was pregnant when we got her. She had several babies, half of them became food for our corn snake, the other half we found homes for.
Also my chinchilla, Annie is the mother of my other 2 chins, Daphne and Lola. The lady I got them from thought she had 2 females, but one ended up being a male and Annie got pregnant. The lady was very ill and couldn't take care of the 2 chins she had and was in the process of rehoming them when Annie got pregnant. They weren't being taken care of too well and the male died. I took Annie and the 2 babies. Annie had a couple infections, Lola had a very badly injured leg (she almost lost it), and Daphne was surprisingly in pretty good health.

The fish have. (Most became fish food, though, you know how it goes.)
And we used to have some hamsters that were baby factories. Dad got a new home!
My finches used to lay a lot of eggs, but I never let them sit on them.
But as far as the dogs, NO, no puppies. EVER.

my dog in the past had babies but that was years ago and I was 5 then. it was an accidental litter because the people we got them from said they were fixed. :rolleyes: my mom did breed my guinea pig when I was in the 6th grade and we got hamsters when I was in the 6th grade and the breeder didn't know how to tell the gender and my hamster ended up having babies. :rolleyes: but I was young then and it wasn't my doing.
from then on all of our animals have been fixed. :) AND none of my animals will ever have babies, ever. I don't want to bring anymore unwanted animals in this world, the pet overpopulation problem is bad as it is. :( plus, I volunteer at the shelter and I would NEVER breed and I don't have ANY interest in doing it. I don't get why people have to bring more unwanted animals in this world. the pet overpopulation problem is bad as it is. :(
I got the pictures! :)

oh yes sadly, Lexie had kittens before i adopted her from the cat shelter, and they all died, Lexie almost did as well, and Ella and Nikki had been allowed to breed continously, Ella for six years due to an irresponsible pet owner, I put a stop to that along with a very special Pter's help and had them spayed and all their babies rescued and adopted out last year, most of you have followed my story and the happy ending of the girls finally becoming mine when she walked away abandoning them into my care, best thing ever could happen to them,they are my gorgeous girls now,but yes there have been many babies produced from these two poor kitties,and even more sadder until last years litters they all either died or became feral cats and added to the already over-population of cats,this woman has a lot to answer for but of course just got away with all as they do,i shudder at thinking what happened to them all and how they went on to breed,those that survived.

Aw, those collie pups are adorable. No, Sassy has never bred and will never breed. Star hasn't either, thank goodness! We never had a female betta so none of the fish ever bred. I would like it to stay this way for the rest of my life. I am against breeding unless it's from a reputable breeder like Majestic_collies. :D

Tim, are any still available? (assuming you sold them ) :D I want one, they are so cute. Looks like they wore mom out, though.
I haven't had Jen her whole life, but from vet reccords I can safely assume she has never had pups. ;)

Sorry sweetie, I never ever breed unless I have a waiting list. They have all been gone for a very long time.......But who knows I might breed again in lets say...2009. But if you are in dire need of a collie......go to Tri State Collie Rescue or your local Collie rescue. They can set you up. All those pups had the Tartanside pedigree. Everyone wants a Tartanside. lol

Nah, I was joking... But they are really adorable. I'd rescue anyways. ;) Not that you're not a good breeder, but I'd always rescue.

Wow! That is a LOT of puppies! Ten? Poor mama, no wonder she looks tired! Tooooo cute, I love the blues.

Yes. I had a mollie earlier this year that had 20-30 babies. My rescue mouse was pregnant and about five days after I brought her home she had 10+ babies.
I was living with my aunt, once, and she had a Rottie girl that had a litter of pups but they all died. :(

Due to incorrect gender related information given to us, my mouse had babies [although I do not begrudge the pet-store lady because the mouse was young and I enjoyed having the babies]. The father was a white mouse with black spots, and the mother was a white mouse as well, just with brown spots. She had thirteen babies if I remember correctly. All except one were brown spotted. Unfortunately the only black spotted one died :(. Let's just say I had a lot of mice.
And then one of my fish had babies. It was awesome.

Nope! All are spayed or neutered. That's the way it SHOULD be!! ;)

Yes. Before we got Sprinkles fixed she had lots of litters :eek: :o The babies that we have of hers (that aren't really babies anymore) are Sky, Heavon, Uno, and Jaws.
Heavon had one litter but ate her babies :eek:
Daphney has had 2 litters-Nitis and Sugars are her babies (and my RB Checkers :( )
We found out Triskit was pregnant when she got fixed. :( But she wasn't that far along and we just couldn't take care of any more puppies anyway.

Since I have been living on my own (my family thought all pets should be allowed to breed) the only pets of mine that have had babies were some of my snakes that were used as breeders before they were given to me to 'retire', and some cats and one snake that came to me preggers.

Yes, before I came here we had a couple litters of bunnies because I was uneducated about spaying and nuetering.
Oreo had an accidental litter, but she is spayed now.
Our Dutch rabbit had a litter a couple weeks ago, we rescued her from an auction where she was already bred.
Our goats are pregnant, the babies already have homes.

Yes. We didn't know that Annie was in heat (or that she was pregnant for that matter) and we put her and my moms friends dog out in the back yard together during the day while he was here one time, and she got bred.
She had 6 puppies. We kept Bailee. Her dad was a full-blooded deaf double dapple dachshund. They were born on December 19th, 2003.

Sorry for the size of the pic.
Baby was supposed to be our foster dog, but after all we have been through with her, we aren't letting her go anywhere. She was pregnant when we got her. She had 3 pups by c-section on August 23rd. We had her spayed when she was in surgery for the c-section.
