Hi to all.
I'll be short.
Please take a look at the pics of my guppy ladies and say your opinion, are they pregnant, and if yes, how long until birth? Thanks!
Pic No.1 = I think I see small eyes?
Pic No.2 = The gravid spot is very dark.
Pic No.3= I can't tell because of the black colour of it...
Thanks again!

I'd say the 1st one is further into her pregnancy, maybe has 7/10 days to go.
The other 2 have longer to go, another couple of weeks or so
It's hard to be accurate.
OldMan will probably be able to tell you more accurately
Watch for them taking on a boxy shape, that usually indicates birth is imminent

Welcome to the forum lumango.
None of those females looks at all close to me. The clear one is a bit more squared off than the others but still would be at least 2 weeks from a drop.

Hi to all.
Thanks for your answers but I have to say that my lady (from the first pic) gave birth yesterday
and we found only 4 tiny babies )probably others has been eaten by my other "predators" but that is nature, what to do,
at least we saved those who are the strongest and put them separate so that they do not need to hide behind the filter
I will post some pic when I come home from work.
Enjoy!
PS sorry for my bad english , it is not my mothers language...

Hi to all!
Just wanted to show you our guppy babies,
and how they are enjoying and growing in their own tank, without anyone to bother them ;-)

Have a nice evening!

and our adults...

Just to say hello to all of you and share with you that we are happy, our plants are growing, fishes are giving birth and so...
Here are the pictures of both, adult and baby AQ (decorated in the style of Sponge Bob, for my son who was very happy about it ;-)
