I bout 2 male guppies and 4 females but when I woke up this mornin they have blue bellys and gravel spots were in the shop were I got them males and females were separate so Im nt sure Wht it is???

gravid spots are a sign of pregnancy,they could have been together in the breeding farm, are they fat at all?

Probably pregnant the fish can get anywhere I've seen female in separate tanks and male in separate tanks but one female escaped in the male tank and I was not very smart and almost bought it as a male but the worker told me it was a female

It was when I first started fish keeping

Guppys are a very prolific species. One male is enough to fertilize four females.And they get pregnant easily and very often.days after they breed you'll see them pregnant again. 100% sure its pregnancy.I once bought a female guppy and she was pregnant and in the way from the shop to my home she gave birth to about 15 fry.Since all of the babies survived a got a 16 for 1 deal.

Really she gave birth on the way to you home from the store was shee already giving birth at the store or was it like when you got in the car

 

[Aquamaniac]

yes.was a half an hour drive anyway.And if she was already giving birth i did not really notice it.But with guppys that happens alot.
