Typically from birth it takes about a month for them to be sexually matured

Hello bigal. Just to make sure we are talking about the same thing 'baby' cherry shrimp are never dots. Newly hatched shrimp are 3-4mm. Look just like adults but tiny. I do not for certain know how long before they are sexually mature but i would guess at 2-3 months under good conditions.
