budgies love birds male female identification in Tamil

this video budgies love birds male female identification in Tamil Most bird owners like to know whether their budgies are female or male. Telling an adult budgie’s sex is quite simple in most cases. Depending on their colour and mutation and of course depending on their current hormonal balance and current health status telling the sex can be more difficult in some individuals.

In general one can tell the sex of a budgie by having a look at the colour of the nose which is called cere. Healthy adult birds show typical cere colours which depend on their sexes.

female Budgies in the breeding mood
Healthy, adult female Budgies have a brownish cere. If a female budgie (hen) is in the breeding mood the cere becomes more or less crusted and partly thickened.

In case the cere is coloured light brown the hen currently is just in a very slight breeding mood. With light blue colouring of the cere the hen isn’t in the breeding mood at all. If an adult female budgie is fights a serious illness the cere might turn whitish to light blue, see photo on the right. After they have recovered from the illness, the brownish colour returns within a few weeks.
Male budgies in the breeding mood
Male budgies (cocks) have a more or less bluish cere. The intensity of the colouring depends on their actual health status and of course on their current hormonal balance. Compared to the female Budgies, cocks do not show a wide range of distinct shades of blue when they are in different stages of the breeding mood. There ceres are always coloured in a bright blue.

In some cases the cere of a male budgie who is not in the breeding mood turns yellowish to greenish in the area around the nares, see photo on the right. I didn’t find any explanation of this phenomenon in the literature or on the internet so far. Maybe it is a symptom of an illness. thank you
