After 6 months of not knowing what sex my baby is, we will be getting results in the next week or so. (He) got blood taken yesterday to find out :D

Isn't it so exciting?

It's only $25 to do but definitely helps with naming as well as knowing to look for egg production or not.

I had my baby checked through the bird shop where I'm getting him and they only charge me $20! For me that was way worth it even if it's only to know if I should say "he" or "she". And the naming of course, but with a name like Dusty you can't really go wrong anyway, haha

I'm getting it done too at his/her first vet visit. Like Brittany, I want to know if I should be expecting egg production. My husband refers to Screech as "she." I refer to him as "he." We'll see who's right.

Yellow Shoulder Amazon, Salty
My breeder told me they had done the test, so when Salty went to the vet for his blood work, I optioned out for the sex test. I told the vet that if he lays an egg we will revisit the situation!
