Baby female?

[Milestone]

I just got these pics of the baby budgie I'm getting. It looks like a female to me... hmm. What do you think?

Perhaps too soon to tell?

So cute!

 

[Milestone]

The breeder said he'll send pics of the other chicks tomorrow so I can decide for sure which one. One of the chicks is pure white with red eyes.

Very cute. Congratulations.

I actually think this particular bird is male, but it might be soon to tell!
I hope I get to see some pics of that albino!

In my opinion its too soon to tell

 

[camelotshadow]

Not sure... hard to tell in the pictures.

Cute!

He/she is a cutie!

 

[Sky&Sunshine]

it is difficult to tell at that age.

Well it took longer to get the pics but here they are. What do they look like? Males or females? Top, middle, bottom and white?

 

[Milestone]

And another pic of the one I'm supposed to get. I'm really finding it hard picking one.

My guess is top and bottom males, middle one and white females? so cute... I saw some today and really got tempted to buy one but had someone with me saying they were too noisy and messy, but they were in a group so chattering to each other, one on it's own wouldn't be so noisy. The ones I've had before weren't. Will this be your first budgie? Are they hand raised or just been tamed early?

There was a budgie but she was a family bird and I was quite young. She died from laying to much eggs. The babies are hand fed and tamed.

I would guess the same - relative to the others, the top and bottom ones look like they have brighter ceres than the other two making them males.
But, it's also possible they are all females, they all have some white on their ceres and I'm not sure if it's due to the lighting or if the ceres really look like that.
Are those pictures the breeder sent you or that you took? You should be able to tell much better in person since the photos arent very well lit.

The breeder sent them yeah. I agree they aren't very good pics. I thought the middle one looked male because of the more pink cere?

It is more pink but there just is a lot more white on the cere. But it can be really hard to tell in photos as the lighting and exposure really can make it look so different. In person, it is much easier to tell.
I was looking back at some of my old pictures of Sammy when he was a baby and even though I was always sure he was a male, his cere looks almost white in a few photos because of how the light hit it (but looks definitely purple in several other photos taken the same day).

Its a little bit blurry, out of the greens i think the middle one is a female and the other two are male.

 

[Milestone]

Thanks, I picked the bottom one out of the three in the pic. So in around 3 weeks he/she should be ready.

I've got a male that looks just like your first picture
