Sexing Blood Parrots

[Kok_n_Balls]

Just wandering if there is a good way to sex my blood parrots visually. I could post a pic later if you guys think you could do it. Thanks much!

Blood Parrots are pretty much impossible to sex just by looking at them. Venting them is the only fool proof way to know.

Btw, Nice Username. lol

Aw, hate to take um out...Oh well, it was worth a shot.

Lol yeah, even though pronounced "coke" its still funny as hell I think.

Best way is to to vent them. You can't look at their body color, fins, or shape and be able to sex them. Once they are about 4" you can vent them pretty accurately.

The main one I'm wanting to sex ( hopefully it's female ) is only about 3" now max.

Is its tube sticking down at all right now?

Not really, there is a little point that barely pokes out and its pointing backwards rather than forwards...Thats making me think its a female.

For me I can usually drop them in with my alpha male parrot and see how they react.
