Hi there Shaheryar!
When did you buy/get these two birds of yours? It may help
me figure out what one may be a male or female.

Has one of them been through the bluffing stage? If your not sure
what the bluffing stage is about, look it up on this site.
Regards

Are they normal greens? I thought that a normal green IRN would have a ring at least partially showing by now... so if they are normal greens, I would have thought that they both would be female?

If they are in fact two years of age and they are normal green IRNs then you have yourself two females. A male green ring neck of this age would be showing a pronounced dark ring.

But pet shopkeeper told that above 1 is male having short tail....

[Shaheryar]

parrot have full long tail is 2year old
and the other 1 having short tail i buyed August 2009
it was a medium parrot
They usually kissing each other
they both make funny noises
and the above parrot put his head in to 2nd parrot legs
i m confused
no dna available here............

Tail length has nothing to do with it, I'm afraid your pet shop keeper didn't have a clue what he was talking about.
You need to wait till they have their full adult plumage which is around 2 years or get a DNA test other wise there is no telling what sex your birds are.
Males have a pronounced black ring round the neck with some pink usually, females have a ring but it's very light in comparison.. apart from DNA it's the only way to sex the birds.

the one on the right has a male shaped head but this is not always correct.

i've got a 2 year only male with no ring it already had had 2 clutches.crazy young birds these days!!

I have a Normal Green 2 year old male that hasnt got his ring yet.

I would also say they are both female simply because by that age they should be showing their ring if one was a male. I had the same issue, I thought mine was a male and I waited patiently for his ring to appear and it didnt! He is now a SHE for sure! But that was me hoping for a male, not because someone had told me it was.

Mine is just over 2 years old now and has been through her bluffing stage very young and is on her third annual molt so if I base it on my experience these 2 are both females.

Also I learned a little about how a female will display which mine now does. Are they handreared?

I have a Normal Green 2 year old male that hasnt got his ring yet.

me too i have a 2 and a half year old male which has not got his ring yet.

and somehow he has already had two clutches of eggs which are now 2 week old little chickys
