Today we rescued 3 budgies from a local animal shelter:) I was wondering if anyone could help me out to determine the sex or age of these cuties? We've had budgies from a reputable bird store before, but these guys we don't know much about.

 

It'd be a huge help! And will also help my family come up with names for them lol

I have more pictures if these ones arnt good enough

 

with this guy (well I have a feeling its a male).. is there any reason his legs and beak are also blue? just curious

 

 

I think this little one is so beautiful being albino I'm not sure what differences there is besides color

 

 

The pretty green one here

 

Thanks for your time!:-)

Hi, my guess,

1st Cock bird, if that is a club ring on bird it should have year of hatching on it.

 

2nd I'd say hen/maybe coming into breeding cond.

 

3rd could still have bars so maybe young, possibly hen, others will tell you for sure.

Hi there,

 

I agree with Robyn as to the gender of your birds. The last budgie looks to be a hen to me as well.

I agree and yes, I think last bird looks like a young hen

nothing wrong with their legs all budgies have different colored legs sometimes.
