You can't. Both male and female rainbow lorikeets are identical, with deep blue heads and stomachs, orange and yellow coloured breasts, and green wings, back and tail.

A zoologist could tell by the spacing of the pelvic bones - females' would be wider. But there is nothing in their physical appearance to help differentiate between the sexes.

How can you tell if a rainbow shark is a male or female?

You can tell the difference between a male rainbow shark and female rainbow shark by looking by the sharks (anal) part. If there is a black outlined tail then YES it is a boy. But if the shark is lighter colored then its a female. You can determine this after the sharks first 3 to 4 months of living.-Fish Expert

How do you tell male and female aqudatic turtles apart?

Well, male and female aquatic turtles are easy to tell apart in a few years. If they are not at least 4inches long, you cannot tell what is a male or a female. A female is usually much more bigger than males when they are grown-up. Also, a female has a more broader head (neck) than a male. A male has a longer, thicker tail than a female, and it has much more longer, nastier nails than a female. Those are about it how you can tell them apart. I hope this helped you.
