Eople have been saying that the Gravid Spot or Gravid Patch is the Fry's Eyes but my Female Guppies had these when I bought them I dont know how old they are but the internet says that Guppies can have a Gravid Spot or Gravid Patch even if their not Pregnant.
 
if they were/are in the same tank as the males they are pregnant. if they weren't/aren't in the same tank as the males they are probably still pregnant lol. how long have you had them?

• 1 Sunset Colour Male
• 1 Black Tailed Male
• 3 Yellow Cobra Females

Deffo got some babies in there, hi btw im new, infact this is my first ever post yey! i used to breed guppies for a long time & alot of them. It doesn't look like you'vegot long to wait either, i'd say probs just over a week, but it is hard to tell. You'r guppies also will be preggers now for many months, so those babies will keep rolling in :]
 
They all look pregnant to me. Female guppies actually store the sperm of the males internally and self fertilize. They can hold it for upto three months which means they don't need a male to make babies until they have used up their store of guppy goo.
