Pygmy Puff Breedingfins Page

Greetings! Ever wanted to breed pygmy puffs or just love pygmy puffs? Then read this page!

How To Breed Pygmy Puffs

Step 1: Select a male and female pygmy puff. They can have different fur colors or the same fur colors. You can tell the gender of a pygmy puff by looking at the markings on its bottom. Just don't try to breed two pygmy puffs of the same gender.

Step 2: Get them to like each other. Do this by having them play and/or cuddle together. I recommend getting them to cuddle because this could mean they want to mate.

Step 3: Find out if they are ready to mate. You can do this by keeping them alone together and watching how they behave. If they are not ready to mate, let them play some more or find new male and female pygmy puffs.

Step 4: When they are ready to mate, put them in a lit room together. Give the female food and a soft blanket to lie down on. Watch what happens or just supervise them. If one part of the process is too much for you (say, the part where the female gives birth), just close your eyes. If the female is struggling to give birth, comfort her.

Step 5: When the babies arrive they will be furless but still have male or female markings on their bottom. If they are blue, warm them. If they are pink cool them. Weigh them, feed them, determine their gender, measure them, and name them. They may breastfeed on the female. If this happens, close your eyes.

What Should I Do If There Are Characteristics I Want The Babies To Have?

If there are traits you want the offspring to have (for example, pink fur), these are called desired traits.

Artificial selection is when people breed animals to have desired traits (for example, a breeder breeds two purple pygmy puffs to get a baby with purple fur).

So, basically, if there is a trait you want your baby pygmy puffs to have you should use artificial selection.

Punnet Squares

A Punnet Square is a square divided into four sections with variables in them that represent traits. At the top are the parents and at the bottom are the offspring.

Here is an example:

f	v
v	f

F= Fuchisa

V= Violet

Punnet Squares are useful when you want to map out what traits the male and the female will give the offspring.
