Has anyone ever had a male betta and female platy make babies?

We have only 2 fish (a female platy and a male betta) and put them in the same tank for about an hour 6 weeks ago. We didn't leave them together long because it seemed to stress the betta out. We didn't think anything of it until I just found 3 babies in the platys tank. Not sure if she had more but we may have accidentally killed them when cleaning the tank last week. There's no other explanation but I can't find anything online about the two breeds making babies together.

We've had both fish for 6-7 months. The betta had never been in the same tank as another fish and the platy hasn't been in contact with other fish for about 3 months.

or:They both have different \"parts\" so it is not possible. A lot of people make this mistake though! Your Platy probably already had \"met\" a male at the pet store and was carrying his sperm. So it looked like she suddenly became pregnant when the betta was in there with her, but she just wasn't pregnant enough to show she was pregnant before she met the betta! Easy mistake though!
