Parrot dna test: I just updated the article by doing DNA sexing to retest this service. I sent my mail on 06/01/2020. As soon as I have the results, I will give you an idea of the time frame as well as other information …
Mail deadline June 2020 :
So I was telling you that my mail left on Tuesday. The result fell on Friday of the following week, a delay of 11 days.
Then I sent another mail-in mid-June, it was a Monday, result was received on Friday of the same week. Or a period of 5 days.
For deadlines, this remains variable depending on the shipment. I also think that it depends on the sorting centers of the post office …
But if you are late, do not hesitate to contact the lab.
DNA sexing method
For starters, the most effective method of determining the sex of a bird that does not have sexual dimorphism is Parrot DNA test sexing.
It should be emphasized that this method is not as complicated as many people think. Just take a few feathers (see video below) and send them to a specialized laboratory. In particular, NEVER use the bottom feathers of the cage and those which fall.
In this article, I will walk you step by step to successfully sexing your bird.
