Let us know what it is!

I sometime think of getting Piper, Shade, Zuri and Petey sexed. Joey is the only one I know for sure.
I'm 95% sure Shade is a female based on those criteria (head and V), specially when compared to her sibling who fits the male criteria to a T. Petey I'm assuming is a female because of her nesty behaviours and Zuri I thought because of her roundish head (who seems flat at times lately so I could be wrong...).

Piper....the more I read about lovies and how the females can be nasty, the more I think I might have a male and maybe the reason I don't want to have them sexed, at least her, is that I'll have to start saying "him" and "he"....which would be weird ;)

I understand that! My friend has a Severe Macaw, Tori. For the longest time they called Tori him. I think they had Tori for 3 or so years but then last year Tori laid an egg! I guess that's one way to know if your bird is male/female! It took a long time getting used to calling Tori she but now it's would be weird calling Tori a he!
Funny how that works.

It doesn't give them nightmares that there's a shark peeking in their cage?

They don't seem to mind. The shark has never given them a reason to be afraid. He's filled with fluff and is lacking teeth. ;)

Of course not! He had such a severe cut that he'd fall like a stone when he fell of his perch. He didn't have any flight feathers yet when he was outside ;)
