Hi, everyone. I'm about to send in my Avian Biotech feather sample to find out what my bird's gender is. The only thing is.. I don't have an account number. I just accessed the form online and printed it out. I didn't request a kit or anything. Do I need an account number?

Everything else is ready to go. Thank you.

Most companies I know require you to request a kit, If you PM me the website I will look into it for you

Ok, That is the place I use because they have an "online results" page
They were fast when I used them

Looking under the FAQ's it says:

How do I get my account number?
Just give us a call or email us


Some More info for you:

How many feathers are needed for testing?
We recommend sending at least five (5).

​

Are freshly plucked feathers necessary for accurate results?
DNA takes an extremely long time to break down, however, testing is likely to be more successful if feathers are freshly plucked.

Can molted feathers be used?
We do not recommend sending molted feathers simply because they tend to carry much less usable DNA, and we want to be certain that the feather is from the bird being tested.

Hope that helps!!
