Oh he's definately a male..no two ways about it! He's successfully fathered a few clutches of babies. He was the dominant male up until this new male arrived. NOw he lets the new male do everything...including mate with him! He even shares his 'wife' with the new male. Im seriously thinking of separating them all anyway.

Thanks for the welcome! I've just noticed on my profile on the side there it says my gender is 'male'.. don't know why... because I did check 'female'! Anyway..thankyou for the advice, I will do this asap. NO, haven't wormed them lately. No, no others are sick, and he isn't underweight. He's pretty healthy other than that problem. Good to know they aren't gay!!

Hi all, am new here.. have been looking around the net to find some answers about my poor fave male budgie. We have 6 budgies, 3 male and 3 female. My fave male, a pale blue with white wings, who is approximately 8 years old, had a HUGE pile of budgie poo stuck to his bum yesterday. He looked pretty crook. I managed to remove the build up, but underneath is all bare, and his bottom looks kinda swollen. Another part to this story, and I'm kinda embarrassed about it..is I believe it is due to another male budgie who has turned him "Gay". We introduced two new budgies about 6 months ago, a male and a female, both young. The male is SUPER sexed up, but he recently started to have sex with my pale blue boy! Is this normal? And, is this the reason behind him having a build up of poo stuck to his rear end? I've never had two males do this before. Im keeping an eye on teh blue boy, but today he does seem better, except he tends to be wiping his butt on the stick perches to remove his poo. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers.
