I have bought some female guppies from my local pet shop that seem to be pregnant already, one i have 3 days but for the past two has been acting strangely, yesterday she was sat at the bottom of the tank near the gravel and pump in the corner all day and hardly did much moving. she has a dark gravid spot but doesn't seem as black as one of the other fish i have photos of aswell. would really appriciate your thoughts thanks.

i also have this orange one which looks quite dark around her gravid spot and large, any suggestions on when you think from experience how long she got left?

The bottom kne with the red tail has not got long to go maybe a couple of days possibly a week. Guppies breed like mad There process is pretty fast
 
Ok thank you, is there any pacific behaviour that i should look out for which are tell tell signs?
 
I'm not sure the baby's just seemed to appear in my main tank if you have plants in your tank then some of them will survive others will be eaten. If you have a spare tank and you want to save them all place the pregnant female in the spare tank on her own once you spot the fry/baby's remove her so she doesn't eat them. Then feed 3-5 times per day on fry food
