Also the female guppies have rounded tails and are not as colorful as the males. I have found that the females are a bit larger than the males. If you watch them close the males are always chasing the females--the females do not chase the males.. Hope this helps..

This really isnt a food question but...I know the answer.
Since guppies are a live bearing fish..
the boys have an organ similar to a penis that runs parallel to their body.
The girls do not.
If they are newborns it may take a little while for you to be able to see what sex they are.

Guppy Fry don't establish their sex for weeks after they are born. Do your Fry have coloring and shaped fins? If so, you should be able to tell the sex by looking for the gravid spot on the females. The gravid spot is definitely easier to find if you observe where it is on the adult female first.
