Oh wow Stephen, what a shock to learn your girl is a boy! Despicable if the breeder knew all along! Still... absolutely gorgeous birds!!
Just curious, can I ask what made you confirm the gender?
Hey you! Long time no speak! Well, when I picked "her" up, I asked for the gender certificate. I noticed both breeders stumbled over their words in response. They said they didn't have it. So, I asked who they did the DNA through so I could call them. They didn't have an answer for me.
Later the day one of the breeders called me and told me they have their own way of sexing. They used a pendulum to determine sex. Yes, a swinging pendulum. She told me it was right 99% of the time.
I talked to my vet and they did the DNA for me. And we found out I have a boy.
Good seeing you again too ! A pendulum?!?! You're kidding, right? Smh. "Hey, what should we tell Stephen, we have to tell him something now" "Give him the pendulum story!" Haha 99% of the time... I'm sorry you were the 1%, even though you love your Ali . Of course they figure the customer is in love with their bird anyway, but that's not the point.. how dishonest! . Stop by more often, we miss you!
