peppermint babies?

No I dont have any pictures so I cant show you what I witnessed last night. I had a peppermint shoot out from the rocks to the bottom of my overflowbox...he twitched around there for a few seconds then back down in the rocks he went. As it disappeared tons of tiny shrimp appeared!! Of course it was a feeding frenzy for my fish and they were all gone very fast. Is this normal with peppermint shrimp? Will this happen often cuz that is great food for my tank and it is free. If there are any threads out there plz point me to them thanks.

...3 times a month if you feed the shrimp well, but as you know it's very fast so most people just miss it.

My lights were still on. They come on 2:30pm and go off 12:30am. This happened about 11 pm.
