Sexing Indian Ringnecks

Sexing Ringnecks are pretty easy after 3 years of age, you can get DNA sexing if you need to know. Males will start to develop a ring after 3 years of age or before. Females will not develop a ring.


Male Indian Ringneck

Picture
A male Indinan Ringneck’s stature is usually not as thick as the female ringneck. His head is also squarer and more vibrant around his cheeks.  He tail is slightly longer as well.  This technique can work for all ringneck mutations except lutino and albino Indian Ringnecks.

Female Indian Ringneck

Picture
Female Indian Ringnecks do not get a ring; however, a slight green ring can be seen around the female’s neck.  Female ringnecks are much stockier and have thicker feet.  Their face is more rounded and their beak is not as prominent.  It takes a trained eye to sex ringnecks visually, even so, this is still not 100 percent accurate.
