I am new to shrimp ..... I have 3 berried Cherry Females ...... how long do they carry their eggs between their legs ...... well my wife said .... until they hatch .... well I am sure she is right ..... and I am also sure she is a bit of a smart alec, also ...... but is there a specific length of time that a shrimp carries their eggs?

Depending on temperature they should hatch sometime between about 2 to 3 weeks from the time they became ovigerous.
