Red face Pregnant Platy

Hey guys,
I am new to having pregnant platies, and I have a couple pregnant at this time. I do have a breeding box set up but she is not in it yet because I am unsure when she will deliver or if she is even close. Can someone inform me what you think, and when I should put her in the breeding box.

I did put her in the box for the picture cause she is too hard to get a picture of in the main tank.

Thank you,

kara

My platy appears to be pregnant too! (Although we JUST got her this past week). I've been doing some research and they say 4-6 week pregnancy and that they become "boxy" when it's almost time. So you'll see her pregnant belly become more flat around the "edges". I'm not too sure if that helps -it's the only physical description i've been able to find!
