Distinguishing male and female peony birds requires observation and analysis based on characteristics such as body size, appearance, behavior, and reproductive organs. For beginners, they can gradually master the discrimination skills through more observation, more learning, and more communication. First of all, we can start with the body shape and appearance characteristics of the peony bird. Generally speaking, male peony birds are more colorful and larger than females. The feathers of male birds are more colorful, while the feathers of female birds are relatively dull. In addition, the male bird's head is usually larger than that of the female bird, and the beak is longer and stronger.

Secondly, we can distinguish male and female peony birds by observing their behavioral characteristics. Male peony birds are usually more active and aggressive than females, and will emit louder calls to attract the attention of female birds. The female peony bird is relatively gentle and its song is relatively soft.
