any chance of seeing the fantails with there fan dovescot, and if possible when you find out tell me the sex of each?

 

No problem, I try once they settle, I am sure they are a pair, more like garden fantails, good for sitters :)

first 3 are cocks the last 4 are hens not sure of the others PS 4 and 5 are hens and 6 a cock

 

I have printed that out to test the old wise one ;D ;D ;D

 

Amazingly, I do not think you are far wrong, maybe we should have a poll or a post for a bit of fun :)

 

Guess the sexes one to ten  :)

How do you know that with just looking at them?

 

you tell by their heads, the cocks have a more bolder round head, and hens more flat and smaller, some now adays are not so easy, and its better getting a look at the bird in hand rather than on photos, o

Ah that's where I've been going wrong then as I have been told in the past that the cocks have a flatter head than the hen. Thanks for that.

someone used to sell the sex indicator, just like a needle on a thread, you hold it over the birds head, not sure what was what but think, if the needle  went from side to side, its a hen, if it went in a sircle its a cock,  ;)
