Posted December 12, 200618 yr Was wondering if any of you experienced guys can tell what sex Tweety and Poppy are yet. Poppy bites us when we put our hands near it and tweety is quiet and doesn't bite at all.Here are some photos I took today after they had run around,had a cuddle and a sleep,they decided to clean themselves. poppy trying to bite my sons finger,it even makes that mad budgie sound.(Laughing out loud) here is a close up of cere's. I think its incredible how quickly they have grown. Going to be very hard to give these guys up. So cute
December 12, 200618 yr Blue is a girl and the yellow is a boy. I am no expert but I remember reading a post here that said females had bumpy ceres and boys had a smooth surfaced cere. Here's hoping I'm right! They are very cute.
December 12, 200618 yr They both look like boys to me too. Shell when they are young both have smooth looking ceres it's the colour you want to look at. A strong pink means boy a mix of pink blue white or purple will mean girl. When they are older the bumpy/crusty look are for females. But I seem to remember that Tweety was a surpise colouring.... can you remind me what the parents look like?
December 12, 200618 yr totally agree 2 boys those ceres are very pink and smooth the bitting is probably just a personality trait one is more brave to let you know how he feels vs the other one being a bit shyer. They are both beautiful.
December 12, 200618 yr Author Hi guys,thanks for your replies.Tweety use to bite us but has now stopped and will sit in your hand if you quietly talk to him and he loves scratchies.Poppy was quiet but now does the biting which stops after awhile.Their parents are mossey and Fluro.Dad is a normal green and Mum is a lutino. I appreciate your replies.
December 15, 200618 yr Author I was trying to reply to this post when my computer froze and then I couldn't get back onto the forum for days.Very frustrating.Anyway here are the pics of Mum and Dad and Tweety is flying in the aviary as of yesterday.Very exciting!!!!!! Here is tweety and poppy again Tweety was a surprise as I didn't know dad was split lutino.
