| The guys at Misty Haven Bird farm swear by it! If you follow
instructions, they claim it's 97% accurate. It's also a lot
less unpleasant for the birds.

| All the avian vets in Houston love it. It is very simple.
Snip a toe nail
Extract Blood
Apply Quik Stop to nail
Send blood to lab in California
Within 2-4 weeks you'll know what sex your bird is.
My vet charged me $50. Now I am doing it myself. Lab costs are $35.
Plus....you can use regular mail instead of having to FedEx (as in
feather sexing).
Plus....the kits don't have a limited shelf life (as in feather
sexing).
And.....You don't have to yank out a blood feather.
The vets all love it so much that they are refusing to surgically sex.
It's about time.
