The cere was blue, then started turning white with only a small amount of blue. Over the past few days it has turned brown just in the middle of the cere and this morning the whole cere is brown. I guess the keeper was wrong...? Is she in breeding condition? Thanks :offtopic: Link to comment

A lot of "breeders" still havent worked that out. A great many people think any blue on a cere means boy. But anyway, you have the prettiest FEMALE budgie :offtopic: Breeding condition YES....breeding age NO. Edited June 10, 2009 by KAZ Link to comment

Definately female. How old is she? the keeper didnt know exactly how old she was but when i got her i assumed she was still fairly young because she still had all the lines on her head nearly down to the cere, but im not very experianced so i dont know for sure. ive had her for about 7 1/2 months.

With Kaz's guesstimate on age, I'd be waiting 4-5 months (just to be safe), and then breeding if she's in condition then (if you want to) Link to comment
