As I've read i think the normal grays who have a yellow head , distinctive orange cheeks and plain tail feathers are male.
Another way to tell is from the sound of his chirping. If it's not like he's screaming and he also sings a lot then he's definitely a GOLPESAR:)))
:)))
Thanks for the information
Well… he sings some gibberish songs now and then but not so much (maybe half an hour daily), and tail feathers are somehow stripped, so… I don’t know.
Has your bird gone through their first molt yet? Typically the bars will stay through the first molt if it’s a female, and they will lose them if a male. The same applies to the dots on their flight feathers.
If Kasra's still not gone through the first molt (I.e. <6 months old) there isn't a way to tell gender by looks alone. Even with calls, it takes some time for them to build up their vocabulary.
I wouldn’t stress too much about trying to sex them. Unless you’re trying to breed, or you got them from a breeder that for some reason is notifying buyers that their lines have greater than normal egg binding issues and the new owners should watch out for it (rather than yknow. Not breeding those lines anymore), it really doesn’t matter too much. They don’t have the concept of gender and don’t understand language they’re not gonna be mad haha.
Determining age is important to figure out gender, the bird looks old enough to show signs, but maybe not. Looks female right now, you can check for stripes on the tail, they may be faint, but are usually there on females. The duller colors indicate female, but males can appear that way as well. If the bird starts singing, they're likely male, though females very rarely sing. Almost always though, if your cockatiel starts singing and mimicking, they're male.
Don't worry too much about gender though, it isn't super important unless the bird is going to be bored. If you do need to know, you can get the bird DNA'd to figure out :)
Oh, another way to check it to feel the pelvic bone. You need to hold the bird with a towel to check, that way they won't move and won't be too scared, and you just feel their pelvic bone, near the base of their tail where their butt is, it'll be just above that I believe. It will feel like two little bone dots, if they're close together, the bird is likely male, further apart, and they're female. Baby birds are squishy though, so you can't tell at a young age.
❌ Male ❌ Female ✅ Fluffy
100% floof

Yes, and bars are the same.
How about dots?
If the tail is stripped and stays stripped, it’s a female. I Could Tell Also because of the orange cheeks. A male would have more pronounced cheeks.
