Hi all!!

I need your opinion, please!

I am interested in adopting this 25 yrd old CAG who's mom is sadly too sick with Alzheimers to care for anymore. I don't have much info, only that this fid is now at the son-in-law's house (who admits to not knowing much about birds but wanted to "save" this baby) and nobody knows what sex it is as no DNA test.

FIY- I previously had a CAG hen for 20 years, who was my love, my life, my everything!!

I will be meeting this beauty in person this weekend, but meanwhile, just wondering if you CAG experts & breeders could give me an educated guess- or gut feeling, based on a couple of pictures I have. Do you think this Grey is a Male or Female???

I already have a DNA kit at home, but can't wait!!! (I'll let you know when I get results!)

Thanks for your input!!

Michelle

Thank you, Tyrion!!
My gut tells me female too, but what do I know. I think it's just because he/she looks like my Gretchen did! I am really looking forward to meeting this one!:roflmao:

Pix from under the wings and tail would be more indicative. :) The expression says female to me but the pointed eye patch says male.
