Here is a great video that shows a guppy just before birth, notice the dark gravid spot (which can be in lighter color in some cases) and the squary appearance just beneath her head

i have feeder guppies but i read alot about fancy so let me give it a shot :P

fancy guppies that are pregnant should have a gravid spot (near their anal fin - its the dark spot that is usually not visable, or really light when they aren't pregnant)
also, their stomach would start to grow bigger
when they are about to give birth, the guppy's back would arch into a "v" shape or (some people ) have said that the stomach would go "down"
also, they would begin to exclude themselves when they are near labor

btw guppies would eat their young! just a fair warning :)

Are you joking? they do no longer seem the comparable in any respect. the 1st time they see them, a lot of human beings think of the adult males are a distinctive species from the girls. Do a cyber web seek for "photographs, fancy guppies," and you will see the style.

good question... till you see a few its hard to tell, but usually they will be fatter than others, act a bit odd (like hang around plants and "nest") and are said to have a flat bottom where their poop comes out. also depending on what u can see, u may be able to see a dark spot just above where the poop comes out.

Yes, look at her gravid spot, that black area. It will be swelled up. If you look closely, you can see small dots, thats when u noe she is ready to be isolated~
