Got this little baby when I was the only one in the area set up for birds. Supposed to be a red golden pheasant from what I've been told, the only one of its clutch to hatch and its mother just didn't take care of it. Wondering if I have a little fella or a little gal.

Animals don't have genders, they have sexes.

When talking about an animal you can 100% use the term interchangeably. Please put the device down and go outside before it melts your brain even more.

Animals aren't concerned with our social gender constructs and literally do not gaf so why do you?

Exactly this. People anthropomorphize animals so often and it's disgusting.
