Yes, they can het pregnant. Our goldfish in the pond have had babies. Sorry it died though.

Well.it's possible..but I think it may have been more from overfeeding.

No its not possible goldfish are egg layers not live bearers.
Goldfish are not pregnant, they lay eggs, that attach to aquatic vegetation. Most goldfish can and will breed if left to themselves, particularly in pond settings. Males chase the females around, bumping and nudging them in order to prompt the females to release her eggs, which the males then fertilize. When a female goldfish is egg-bound, can have a bigger, hard belly.

BUT if it suffered of constipation, the symptoms are similar: swollen, hard abdomen. Most goldfish are compacted and this causes a problem with there ability to eat and digest things well. Foods high in fat can cause a goldfish to get stopped up. Don't overfeed goldfish, because they are greedy and eat more than necessary. Try to vary the food, give them vegetables (peas, cucumbers, lettuce, spinach) and fruits (kiwi, orange) and also live food (earthworms, tubifex worms, bloodworms, mosquito larvae, and daphnia)


Yeah no matter what there in they can be pregnant aslong as there are a male and female and thats it
no gold fish do not get pregnant the female carries eggs and releases them with a male beside her to fertilize the out side her body
Swelling that led to death.

Sounds like dropsy to me. The fish swells so much even the scales may begin to stick out.

She may have been eggbound or constipated as well. You should be feeding them peas, zucc., or romaine 2-3 times a week to prevent constipation.
