Gorgeous bird! My female has a slight ring so DNA is the best way until they reach the age of sexual maturity and then the male will have his ring.

Also, be careful with that wing clip. I have known some birds to get broken wings because they have that type of clip.

She wants to trust so badly, but she has such a shady past that it will take awhile. We have decided th...
