Well I sort of guessed when you said Ruby now had a new name but no mention of the other two, they are all lovely I just love those lovely long tail feathers and their colours are stunning!

The birds are absolutely beautiful. Fancy all of them being boys . Just out of interest how do they tell the sex of Parrots?

Thank you Asti

with some parrots you can tell by colour, like my eclectus parrots as the hen is red/purple and the male is green

but with blue and golds and others that cannot be sexed. you either send off a blood test, or 2 or 3 chest feathers and they test it that way

Wow that's fascinating, thanks for telling us, I always wondered how it was done.
