Default Qn on my blue grass

This is the first batch of my blue grass but it seemed to be different from the normal blue grass. They contain mixture of blue and red colour on the tail and body. Can anyone explain to me ??

Bro, after seeing your pics, don't seem like the guppies are blue grass.. Bred yourself? Maybe somewhere along the line some before they end up with you was mixed.. A bewildering array of things going on with the guppies..

Yea it's my F1 batch. I got them from guppy galaxy, the uncle tells me that it is natural for them to show signs of red grass traits because he said that maybe the parent or grandparent batch has a mixed of blue and red grass guppies.. My female has little redness on it's tail but male is a pure blue grass. So are those considered blue grass, if not what are those? ( I will try to upload photo soon )
My F2 batch also have some fries showing signs of redness...

They look colorful, a little bit like Endler Grass guppies. Hahas. Maybe you can take a pic of your breeding pair ? So we can have a better comparison

Sorry wasn't able to upload the photo of the parents because the female died when I reached home today.. What I can describe is that the female has a small red patch at the bottom of the tail while the male is a pure blue grass.
You all did mention that it was prehit, you mean with another red grass strain or with another type of guppy? However my F2 batch have already shown signs of redness on the males.. Do I still call these batches blue grass or we have another name for these??

Wat I think is that the female might b carrying some red gene. N when u breed with the male, tendency to breed out blue n red grass. My suggestion is to get another grass female w/o red tint n breed. Correct me if I m wrong grass expert.
