I'm guessing female based on the shape of the head... To me, it looks more like our Janey than our Charlie. But im almost always wrong... So it's probably a boy ;)

Hi Tara

Just had another look at the pics. The third one makes me think it's a boy but the others remind me more of Janey so I really have no idea. Will you get a DNA test?

He/she is a cutie though!

Hi Tara

Sorry I have no idea. I've only ever had 2 IRNs.

If it's really aggressive, then it's a female. As females are known to be really aggressive. But to me, the IRN looks a bit like a boy.

Damien's comments are across the board true but not true for all birds & I'm not sure those traits are as obvious in immature birds.
