"What do your guppies do? The ones I had gave birth to little guppies."

Don't they still lay eggs? They just hatch inside instead of outside. Like some snakes. What's the word, oviparous (or something like that?)

Oviparous = egg-laying. I forget, I was kid when I had the guppies and never really checked into it. I'll check it out.

From guppyplace: "The guppy is a live bearer, with an average gestation period of 28 days."
