DNA avian sexing services

[Free as a bird]

I long thought that doing a DNA avian sex test was expensive, hundreds of dollars. But I learned from members on this forum that it's not expensive at all. For under $30 you get sent a kit. You get a blood or feather sample and send it to their laboratory, within 2 or 3 days they have a result for you.

Good for sexing young parrots and species that are hard to distinguish sex.

Has anyone ever tried it?

Yes.. i have used this service many years ago!! As it turned out, I was right with all 5 of my birds!

You can do it yourself and save a little time and money. (Print out the cards for blood samples)

I'm waiting to do my CAG as we can't yet do a "manicure" to get blood.

Go for it! It's cheap and easy!
