Beautiful birds!!! :D

Btw, I noticed you have a big cage- budgies LOVE toys! Shreddables especially. Hookbills need to chew on something everyday because their beaks grow like our nails and need to be conditioned, also these smart creatures need mental stimulation. :) You gotta experience how funny and rewarding it is to watch them play, my Budgie is a huuge acrobatic clown on crack!!

I am actually going toy shopping tonight... I just bought them a bigger cage and it looks bare lol

SN: I just googled how to sex a Senegal... And I'm pretty sure Horus is a female... S/He has a green feather on the underside of her tail feathers (my first Senegal so I have no idea!!)

Senegal parrots are monomorphic, so you can't visually sex them. You can get him/her DNA sexed for about $25-40 via a mail-in kit. :)

Great pictures, thanks for sharing!

I have a Senegal and believe she is female, her markings follow the female trends. But without DNA sexing one can never be sure. Not important enough to me to spend the money to find out, so she is a she until further notice.

Not sure... I bought him/ her and Forest from Petco... They said a couple months but didn't know for sure.

All of my birds ages are unknown actually!

Have you had him for over a year?

If he is older, and the cere hasn't become brown like Sunny's, and has remained a purple color, my guess would be he is a he.
