It usually takes 3-6 months for guppy to mature from birth, but the specific time depends on the feeding environment and mode. If the feeding environment is comfortable and the food is abundant, they can mature in 3-4 months. If the living environment is poor and the food and nutrition are not enough, it will take 4-6 months for them to mature. Guppies develop faster, and when they are adults, they reproduce without seasonal constraints. As long as the breeder can ensure a comfortable living environment, they can reproduce normally.
2. How old do guppies start to develop colorGuppies have no color when they are born. Generally, they don't start to develop color until about one month after birth. If the feeding conditions are better, they will gradually appear color after one month of birth. If the feeding conditions are poor, it will take them about 2-3 months to develop color.
If breeders want to make their hair color better, it is best to feed them more abundant shrimp, red worms and other foods, which can increase the pigment in their bodies and make their body color brighter. Give them more sunshine, which can promote the precipitation of pigment and increase their body color.
