When do guppy fry get their colors

[vacuumlad]

I was wondering when guppy fry should get their colors? I've had 5 guppy fry for 1 month and they still have no color.

Its taken mine maybe 6 weeks and even then most aren't really showing their adult colors yet. I have noticed the very young fry already show the black patches they will have but not the other colors yet.

I think that about six weeks should be average, but there can be a very large range, especially for different subspecies of guppy.
