How to know cockatiels is Male or Female
How to know cockatiels is Male or Female
Hi,
Depending on the mutation, you can tell the sex of cockatiels based on the feather colors, as long as the birds are about a year old. However, with many mutations, there is no visual difference between the male or female. In this case, you can make an educated guess based on behavior – males tend to be more vocal and friendlier than the females. But to be 100% sure, you will need to have a DNA test run – these are available through your Vet or online.
Thank you for asking Lafeber,
