I am not sure if there is a way to tell a lovebird male from a female before they are 9 months... is it also by the shape of their eyes? If so then here is a picture:



The blank one was supposed to be of Pixxy on a closeup of her eye

there are mail order DNA kits you send a drop of blood to them and they send the results back to ya. Zoogen maybe ??   think  Can't remember.  Or you can have it done at the avian vets.

You can also use feathers.  Here is another link http://www.avianbiotech.com/?gclid=CKGW85zpzqkCFQzDKgodGnUeNA
