I bought Alfie as a boy 2 weeks ago aged 10 weeks. He appeared to have a bluish cere and the breeder assured me it was a boy. I'm now questioning this as the blue part around the nostril looks to be brownish in pigmentation. Could you please sex? This first picture is from 2 weeks ago (with tail feathers might I add) Uploaded with ImageShack.usSecond picture taken today Uploaded with ImageShack.usThanks!

Hmmm. I would guess that Alfie is a female. Time will tell, I think. Considerably cute bird!

Beautiful young bird. He needs some wooden perches though, plastic is not good for his feet and the round cage is not ideal either, birds get stressed in round cages.

I've just purchased a medium Vision bird cage with some wood perches - you must be a mind reader After reading about hen behaviour, I think she's demonstrating some of that!

That's perfect, your little friend will be so happy in there.

I was about to start typing just about all you mentioned, SQ. Nice work.

I thought that too, Gaile, but I am no breeder, so doubted my instincts.
