The nose wax skin (the skin above the beak) of the female budgerigar is brownish in colour, while the male is blue. A very young budgerigar does not yet show its sex so clearly. The colour of the nose wax skin can change at an age of less than eight months. Young female birds often have a bluish-coloured nose wax skin, the colour of which changes with sexual maturity. A male budgerigar will never have a brown coloured nose wax, if it is brown it is definitely a female.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"742\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/blue-budgie-isolated-white-background-budgerigars-bird-wavy-parrot.jpg\" alt=\"Sex in budgerigars\" class=\"wp-image-7866\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/blue-budgie-isolated-white-background-budgerigars-bird-wavy-parrot.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/blue-budgie-isolated-white-background-budgerigars-bird-wavy-parrot-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/blue-budgie-isolated-white-background-budgerigars-bird-wavy-parrot-768x570.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Sex in budgerigars: Blue nose wax skin in males<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When can you determine the sex of budgies?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Occasionally the nose wax skin of adult female budgerigars looks pale blue when they are not ready to mate. When they are ready to mate, the beak changes colour to brown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sex determination by behaviour<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Budgerigars also show their sex through behavioural characteristics. Male birds nod their heads more frequently and walk back and forth on the perch while chirping. This behaviour is part of the mating ritual, the bird is \"practising\", so to speak.<br><br>Budgerigars can see ultraviolet colours. At the beginning of mating readiness, you can see under UV light that the male bird's plumage glows to attract the attention of the female.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Female birds have fewer different sounds. Instead of the song of a male bird, you are more likely to hear individual calls from the female. Female budgerigars defend their territory more aggressively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/melopsittacus-undulatus-parakeet-bird-eating-seeds-standing-wire-background-with-bokeh-beautiful-colorful-bird-mexico.jpg\" alt=\"Sex in budgerigars\" class=\"wp-image-7865\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/melopsittacus-undulatus-parakeet-bird-eating-seeds-standing-wire-background-with-bokeh-beautiful-colorful-bird-mexico.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/melopsittacus-undulatus-parakeet-bird-eating-seeds-standing-wire-background-with-bokeh-beautiful-colorful-bird-mexico-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/melopsittacus-undulatus-parakeet-bird-eating-seeds-standing-wire-background-with-bokeh-beautiful-colorful-bird-mexico-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Sex in budgerigars: Brown nose wax skin in females<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/en\/2012\/02\/17\/kopfschmerzen-durch-gehirnerschuetterung\/\">How do you teach a budgie to talk?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/en\/2012\/02\/16\/joghurt-die-versteckte-zuckerbombe\/\">How to recognise that budgies want to breed<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/en\/2012\/02\/13\/ich-will-das-haben-weil\/\">Correct feeding of the budgie<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/en\/2012\/02\/14\/fruehlingsputz-aber-umweltfreundlich\/\">The budgerigar, Germany's most popular bird<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/en\/2012\/02\/13\/gottes-wille\/\">Different colours in budgies<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=DiKv4w2RwNA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chirping budgies - A great day<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"657\" src=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/couple-parrots.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7873\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/couple-parrots.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/couple-parrots-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.neuropool.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/couple-parrots-768x505.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Flirting budgerigar couple<\/figcaption><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Das Geschlecht bei Wellensittichen kann leicht bestimmt werden, sobald sie ausgewachsen sind.
