Post: Differences between a Redbellied from a Senegal

Posted by Phillip on 4/09/05

A redbellied was offered to me but it's eyes were
yellowish not red and the chest was fully orange red
unlike the Senegals in another cage that had a V pattern
and their eyes were a lighter yellow. Was told that since
the redbellied was a young bird it's eyes will be the
yellowish color and that they will change to red after the
bird is older. Didn't have a clue whether this is true or
not. Can someone with the knowledge in Redbellied and
Senegal parrots please explain the differences of the eye
and feather coloration from an infant bird to an older
adult bird between both species? Thanks.
