Small guppies can be fed about 2-3 days after birth. They are oviparous. When they are born, their bodies will carry vitellotin, and the nutrition in vitellotin is enough for small guppies to absorb for 2-3 days. In addition, small guppies are not flexible when they are born, and even if they are fed food, they cannot eat normally. Therefore, it is best for breeders to wait for 2-3 days before they can swim by themselves, and then feed food at this time. Guppy fry are just born, and there are not many kinds of foods they can eat. Breeders need to help them choose some easily digestible and nutritious ones, such as shrimp eggs in good years, cooked egg yolks, backwater, paramecium and so on.
