Which of my fish had babies?

Is there a way to tell the difference between guppy and Mickey mouse platy fry? We supposedly have all male guppies and a single Platy, but somehow we have 2 little orange fry that appeared in our community tank. Trying to figure out which fish they came from.

Also, anything special they need to eat? Not planning on doing major breeding, but if I can keep them alive, I will try.

If the MM Platy is red and the Guppies have no red in them or are in fact all males, then they are Platy fry. Guppy Fry and Platy fry are similar in size when born but different looking based on the parents. Either way, Guppy or Platy, they would need to be cared for in the same way so you will know for sure when they grow up.

I would also guess platy. IME, the platy fry have more color sooner than guppy fry, so if you are already seeing some orange, that would lead me to think platy.
