Sun conures have to be DNA sexed in order to determine difference between sexes.
Feeling a bird's vent is not an accurate way of sexing any parrot. Try Avian Biotech on the internet. They charge $19.95 for a DNA test (testing kits are free). An avian vet can also sex a parrot via surgery, however, DNA sexing with a few drops of blood from a nail or blood feather is much less intrusive/safer.
AnswerYES there is a way but its very hard to tell ,however it can be done- hold the bird tightly but gently in your hand -with your other hand on the underneath of its belly follow down a straight line-u will feel boney part. now start at the tail and u will feel a v alittle above the tail feathers. if u can fit ur pinky between the open part of the v its said to be a female. it the bones are so close together u cant fit your pinky tip between them its a male. also u can send away for a free DNA kit where u use a very small amount of blood and send it back for a fee of 39.99 each bird (i think that's how much it is).also another way to tell if a conure is a male or female try gripping the bird closely and scroll your finger down its back. you can tell if its male because it will have a strait bone then a lump then a strait again. if it has a lump then a strait and another strait it is a female.
AnswerUnfortunately you can not sex a bird unless your vetinarian does it as a operation and this can be very stressful for the bird and upsetting.
You can't unless you get your bird DNA tested, and you usually can go to a vet and they will do that for you(for $ of course). Or wait until they go through puberty (Age of puberty ranges from Conure to Conure) A female will lay eggs, even without a male present.
What kind of conure is this? If it is a sun conure, the males usually have much brighter/more vibrant colors. If you do not know what kind of conure this is, I suggest going to an avian vet to learn more about it, and get a test done to tell the gender, if you want.
