Wow. Lucky you! A friend's daughter was playing outside and a cockatiel just landed on her head and they ended up keeping it. I've heard about the dots or so on back of tail prob meaning female. How cute!
@Megtunes i know,we have biggo cats around the neighborhood. its a wonder they didnt make a colorful snack out of buddy. i had heard him calling for severarl days but i thought he was a wood pecker or something. he stilll makes that terrible screech sometimes (usally when the dogs bark).
No, your birdy is a little "dude".. that yellow head w/ bright orange cheeks- only a male indicator.. Female gray tiel are ALL GRAY HEAD, only with orange cheeks. So GRAY head- FEMALE gray tiel
YELLOW head- MALE gray tiel.
Also if the underside of tail and wings are solid color- only a MALE.
Underside has more than one color= yellow dots, bars, stc- only A FEMALE.
thank you, i tried calling him buddette,but it just was not right. his behavior always indicated a male to me for some reason. i appreciate your reply tati. i am learning. (:
my buddy flew out ,and went to the very tip top of a tree. spent the night outside and finally came down. i stood calling him until dark. i was very thankful for his return!
@Raynedear1 yes! my buddie does like an eagel,and gets sort of mean on my computer table .she wont let me touch the mouse. i dont guess you can tell except by the birds behavior if it is male or female?
@phootyraskel My Bird Was a Unsure Gender due to mix of color or something but you'll find out in time. our Cockatiel Pikachu suprised us one day when we found an egg.
your boy wants to mount you. juss sayin

@tati31251 Not really. My female has bright red cheeks and a yellow head, yet she has laid eggs in the past.
The only sure indicators of gender are DNA, Wing and Tail bars, and eggs. All else are generally just myths.

@tati31251 Actually, I've got a yellow-headed grey, and... it lays eggs. So that formula miiight not be foolproof. xD
