Another one of those "whats my budgies gender" threads

[Opal]

Hes/shes about to hit 9 weeks, so I figure it's a tad early, but I'm just too curious what other people might think he/she is =D
Both photos taken in daylight.

 

[Kiwi & Co.]

I’m thinking female?

This one has to be male. You can see by the way the colour is changing the cere used to be pink.
Lovin' the wet chicken look.

 

[Sparkles99]

I'd have guessed female too. You just can't win.

 

[AussieBird]

I think male too.

 

[Sunni Tiel]

Looks like a boy.

 

[Destiny]

I give up. They all look like girls to me.

Is that because you have so many girls?

 

[Mybluebird]

I'm thinking boy, also. Loving the wet budgie look!

 

[Lori D Pert]

Glad I double checked on my phone on this. My laptop sucks with colour. On my laptop that first pic looked like a bluish lilac to me but on my phone it's definitely pink. So yes, boy. Love the wet, bedraggled look of the second pic...lol.

Is that because you have so many girls?

Yeah, probably. Lol.

Kiwi and Cucumber both had bright blue ceres when I got them. And everybody else turned out to be female. I have zero experience with immature male budgies.

I still laugh at myself for thinking Snowflake was a boy... for almost a whole year!

Alright, so thats a definite maybe to either then =D

Pretty much.

I'd recommend waiting a few weeks/months and keeping a close eye on their cere. Heavily pied or albino birds tend to be the hardest to sex accurately, especially at a young age.

In the meantime, I am a 100% sure that they are either male or female.

It's a lady!

It's a lady!

Yeah that's what it looks like on my phone! Like a very pale almost white lilac colour
