they are the same colouring as the mum, silver/grey with a blue tail. the male died after the 1st lot but i think he was blue too. they all appear to have a gravid spot, don't they need to be pregnant to show this ?

maybe they havnt developed their colours yet? or maybe the male baby guppies used that deodorent thing on the commercials and the females went after em?

Yes, a guppy can have only female fry, but that would be very rare indeed. Yes, your young females do need to be pregnant to have actual gravid spots, but sometimes you can find a dark area in that region on a young guppy that is not pregnant. If they have not been exposed to a male in their lives, they certainly can't be pregnant.
