Smile boy or girlTAG ?

Im thinking of getting a baby Tag soon. I ve wanted a parrot for a long time and my friend has a Tag that I really love. Ive been reading about some breeds of birds specifically pionus where the males get nasty after a couple of years. Is this the same with greys? Ihad been thinking of getting a pionus but I really want the grey so I think Im going to go for it. Whatif any is the differance between boys and girls ? Any info would be appreciated!!

So far, I have been calling Echo a boy. We are pretty sure he is, but then again, you can't really tell.

Do you have any other males/female birds? If you don't want to deal with the egg thing, males are best. I don't really have a preferance, except in ekkies, but this is greys!

I've got one of each in the CAGs.
They are both loves, both a hoot to be with, and both just the biggest suck-ups!
no difference here!

We've had both and there is really no noticable difference here.
