About two months ago I got two male budgies at a bird fair. The woman said she thought they were both males, but I don't think she really knew. So I'm just curious as to what gender and mutation they really are. What do yall think? Oh, and their names are George and Ringo.

 

 

 

 

George

 

Ringo

You have two lovely female cobalt or violet opaline dominant pieds I believe. Might be time for a name change

 

 

and WELCOME to our forum :budgiedance:

 

 

P.S. I once had a female cat called George for very similar reasons ...............ha ha ha

I agree :budgiedance: I have a hen called Ringo I think it suit both genders

 

Ringo clearly look violet in the pictures "George" might be as well or just a cobalt.

Hiya animal chick.. welcome to this great place. Lovely budgies you have too!

Welcome to the forums, they are gorgeous and I agree with Bubbles

Thanks so much, this seems like a really great forum. I was kind of hoping they were males but its okay, now I have a total of 5 girls. I guess I will have to change their names, (Laughing out loud). I'll probably keep Ringos name but will change George's. I was think maybe Lilac, im not sure.

They are very beautiful. Merry Christmas and welcome to a great forum.

Georgina!

Hi and welcome to the forums , you have very pretty budgies

How about just going from George to Georgie?

or Georgia

i have a cockatiel that i handraised and i thought it was a boy so called it george but then he didnt whistle or have any male charicteristics so i thought it was a girl then it turned into a beautiful boy but i still call him georgie

I smiled when I saw your 'boys'...

They are definitely girls - you can tell this because although their ceres are blueish - they have a distinct white ring around their nostrils.

 

They are gorgeous budgies - congratulations!!

 

You will love this site - the people on it are so down to earth and helpful...
