how can u tell the differnce from a girl bird and a boy bird?

Question

parkeets

Answer 1

Many boy birds are prettier than girl birds. But with certain breeds, like parakeets, it's really hard to tell. A vet could be a good resource.

Answer 2

I have had parakeets off and on since 1972, and I can tell you that for most of the more "common" breed parakeets that you find, the male bird has a blue nose, or "cere", just above his beak, and the girl bird has a brown nose or "cere" just above her beak. This isn't always true when the breed of parakeet is not the ordinary run-of-the-mill parakeet, and then I rely entirely on the sleekness of the bird's body and it's capability to fly. The male bird is always sleeker, and he can fly faster, quieter and can change directions and land/stop MUCH FASTER than the female. The female parakeet, although similar in most areas, is a bit "chunkier" than the male, and she cannot fly as fast or as far or change directions or land/stop near as fast as the male. She is noisier in flight since her wings have to flap harder and she creates more flapping-against-the-wind sounds than the male who is a much better flyer. I hope this helps. God Bless you.

Answer 3

The best way to sex (tell from male and female) is to have your bird DNA tested at a vet. They will take a very small sample of blood (normally from a toenail, just 1 drop). This will provide you with a DEFIINITIVE answer to your question. Its is normally not very expensive (it cost me 18 dollars to have it done to my parrot)

Males and females can be the same coloration on some species and it really just depends on the birds genetics themselves. Other species can have particilar marking IDing them as a male or female but it is not always 100% definite.

Answer 4

If you look at a bird's cere (nose), you can tell the difference. Females' ceres are brown to pink. Males are usually blue.

The older the bird gets, the easier it is to tell, because they become more sexually mature.

Answer 5

A boy has blue or something on its cere (the flesh above its beak) and a girl has brown when she's ready to mate I think, or like a pinkish or maybe a purplish color I think. I have 4 at home.

Answer 6

That depends on the type of bird. Some birds its obvious like peacocks where the male is bright and colorful and the females are duller colored and brown. With cockatiels, the males are usually more vocal and on the underside of their wings the females have little spots.

Answer 7

Above your parakeets beak, you will find a section of "fleshy looking" material where the nostrils are located.
In a male parakeet, this area will appear a sky blue color, and in a female, it will appear a pink or "Caucasian skin tone" color.

Answer 8

Yes, in most cases. Which type of a bird? There are different ways, depending on the type of bird.

Answer 9

For a boy, the cere (above the beak) will be dark blue or lavender. For a girl, it will be pink, tannish, or light blue.

Answer 10

I know with parakeets boys birds have purple or blue on their beak. Also they have the ability to learn at least one word.
