Hi Alexandra i'm no expert either but LucyBob  looks like a girl to me, how old is the bird? and is the bird vocal, calls out a lot or whistles back at you? I'm only going by stance in the photo and the crest size for now. If you really want to know, you be best to ask JoAnne, Anna or Frank, Frank is the genetics expert and he will know in a flash. you could post these photos in the Genetic section on "that forum" Cheer Debs |
