I have three. My first is a gorgeous lutino that I think is a female because she doesn't mimic. She is very sweet but only likes her head pet. She is about 2 years old. My second is an unusual color. It is almost all white with no cheek markings and a bit of grey on its sides. I think it's a female for the same reason. She is a little over a year. My third I got from a friend who couldn't give it enough attention. He is almost all grey with a white head and no cheek markings, I think they're called white faced? He is definitely a male because he sings and talks. I was wondering why I haven't seen any eggs yet in the cage? Maybe they're all males. I have seen the "male" breeding with both "females" but no eggs! If I put a nestbox in the cage, would it encourage them to lay eggs? Also, my male squaks so much! He drives everyone crazy. Yes, he does talk and whistle pretty tunes but he screams all the time as well. How can I get him to quiet down???
