how do you know when the female guppy is pregnant

Usually you will see a black spot just beneath her anal fin, which can be in some cases also light colored

she will get also very fat

the gestation period is 28 days with livebearers

they can have babies up to 6 times from just one fertilization if you don't have a male around once she drops her first fry

you will also notice a squarely appearance about her, just before she gives birth

the following article explains everything in detail including pics and videos of a pregnant guppy

Hope that helps
Good luck

You could tell that a female guppy is pregnan because she will have a dark spot near her anal fin when about 2 weeks from birthing period.

Is she in the bowl? Is she swimming? She's alive, therefore, she's pregnant. The only unpregnant guppy is a dead guppy.
