can anyone help?

 

thanks

 

 

How old is your bird?

 

A pieds cere does not necessarily change colour - to it may be male or an out of condition female.

 

The age will help determine gender in this case as the female's cere will turn brown repeatedly over time while the males might stay as it is or go pinky

thanks for the reply.

 

the bird is approx 7 to 8 weeks old thats what i was told by the pet store.

it is still young (7-8 weeks seems about right) as you can see the bars on the head and the immature throat spots. So the bird hasn't had it full adult moult yet which happens from 3 to 6 months.

 

 

i believe you have a hen.
