The male and female thrushes are of the same color. From the outside, it is difficult to distinguish male and female whether it is a young bird or an adult bird. It is said that the inherent thrush is not called immortals do not know, but it is still possible to distinguish male and female from the slight difference in some details. Several commonly used identification methods are introduced as follows:

He is also a warrior in the bird-fighting arena. Therefore, bird fighting is a well-known traditional entertainment among the people, and it is still popular today. Although the female thrush's voice is monotonous, it is not lacking in charm. In short, Thrush has won the favor of everyone with its beautiful posture like a golden shuttle and a singing voice like a lazy flute. According to the different singing of male and female thrushes, people realize that only male thrushes have ornamental value. Thus, for thrush breeders, identifying males and females is a crucial issue.

Male and female identification of adult birds:

1. Listening to the call Because the male and female thrushes are not very distinguishable in terms of body shape, size, coat color, etc., it is difficult to distinguish between males and females , the best way is to identify from the tweets, therefore, there is a folk saying if the thrush does not speak, it is difficult for the gods to start. When the male thrush is calling, it makes a high-pitched, loud and rhythmic sound; the sound of the female thrush is monotonous and harsh, which is a single sound of di-di-di. As long as the thrush croaks, it can immediately identify the male correctly, which is a hit for a sexually mature thrush.

2. Observe the appearance. Although the appearance of male and female thrushes is very similar, experienced people can often grasp some small features, draw differences, and accurately determine the male and female birds.

①The head shape of male birds is mostly large and square; the head of female birds is narrower and smaller.

②Look at the beak of the beaked male bird is thick and long; the beak of the female bird is short and thin.

③ Look at the nostrils The nostrils of the female bird are very small. Viewed from the side, the two nostrils are opaque or the light transmittance is not strong, and the distance between the nostrils and the forehead is short. As the saying goes, the nostrils are not transparent to the female bird; the male bird's nostrils are large, and when viewed from the side, the two nostrils are brighter, light-transmitting, and some are connected. And the distance from the nostrils to the forehead is farther.

④ Look at the beard. The beard is the mustache on the beak (beak). The whiskers of female birds are thicker and curved downward; the whiskers of male birds are thinner, erect and upward, generally not curved.

⑤ Look at the black axis pattern on the head, back neck, and front chest of the black axis pattern thrush. But the male axis pattern is different. The black axial lines on the head, back, and nape of female birds are generally thin, thin, light, and unclear, especially the black axial lines on the front chest, which only grow to the lower part of the neck. The black axial lines on the head, back, nape, and front chest of male birds are generally thicker, denser, heavier, and relatively clear. Some birds with heavier black stripes on their heads were named flower-headed finches. The black stripes on the chest can extend from the neck to below the chest, and the black stripes are wider and longer than in females.

⑥ The male toes of the paw-clawed males are thick and strong in jumping and falling in the cage, especially the large and prominent flesh pads of the hind toes are more obvious. The female bird has slender feet and small toes. It jumps gracefully in the cage, and the pads on the hind toes are small, not prominent, and not obvious. Therefore, the common saying of choosing a bird goes like this: The mother bird and the mother bird have small hind toes.

Chicken sexing The thrush nest chicks refer to the young birds that are born from the time of breaking the shell to the time when they can't fly or feed independently. At this time, the body shape and coat color of the thrush are not fixed, and they cannot chirp, so be extra careful when identifying males and females.

1. In the same nest of chicks, experts always use the saying the first male and two females, three males and four females to judge the sex of the chicks. Often in the same nest of chicks, the first one to break out of the shell is always a male bird, the second is a female bird, the third is a male bird, and the fourth is a female bird again, so there is a saying of the first male and two females. . When selecting birds, if the chicks are caught in the same nest, the first ones are often the young ones that grow strong, large and powerful.

2. Through observation, it is also possible to judge the sex of the same nest of young birds. In this way, even if people do not know the order of hatching of the same nest of young birds, they can be identified by the following observation methods. In the same nest of chicks, weigh each bird one by one with your hands and hold it. If it is a male bird, it will feel heavy and firm in the hand. The bird struggles strongly in the hand, and the sound of begging is also loud. Orange-yellow, male juveniles are longer and larger, with a higher bridge of the nose, a distinct triangular beak, and larger nostrils, and both nostrils are light-transmitting. The female bird feels light in the hand, the young bird is weak when struggling, the begging sound is low, and the throat is yellow when the mouth is opened.

3. When the chicks grow to 40 days later, the identification is easier. The male chicks are sturdy and like to jump in the cage. The toes are thick and powerful, the beaks are long and thick, with a distinct triangular shape, and the eyes are violent and energetic. When it stands, its chest and wings are outstretched, especially after a full meal, it often stands on a pole and mutters to itself, learning to sing. At this time, the throat of the young bird can be seen shaking with the call. The female bird's beak is flat, not triangular, and rarely shows her breasts and wings when standing. She also seldom jumps in the cage. The larynx did not vibrate up and down. In short, the young birds in this period provided more convenient conditions for the identification of males and females from the physical characteristics to the basic characters.
