Wondering about gender of conures

[LaurieLJT]

I’m curious if there is any body language or certain habits to figure out if my conure is either boy or girl ? I know there is DNA testing which I think is expensive and ( don’t know how they do that ).
Thanks

I paid $50 for DNA testing at my vet’s office about 10 years ago. I see that there are now many DIY testing kits sold online that cost less than $20.

If you aren’t comfortable getting a blood or feather sample from your bird, call your vet’s office and ask for a quote. It is not as expensive as you think.

Ok thanks. The feather sample is that something that fall off on its own right ?
