Hi! I've had my babies a couple of weeks now and thought I'd ask about their gender. I got Teddy and Rocket from a breeder who said they were both definitely males. I posted pics on another site and some questioned whether they were male or not.. so I thought I'd ask here as most likely someone more qualified will be able to help haha
Anyways, these are probably the best pictures I have where you can see their ceres properly so sorry if they aren't good enough!
Oh and Teddy is the cinnamon and Rocket is a creamino
Your little budgies are adorable, congratulations!
They're actually both beautiful little girls as both their ceres are pale and whitish, which indicates female. If the pictures are true to what you see in real life, then there is no doubt as to their gender.
We look forward to seeing more of your beautiful little girls around the forums!

Ahh thank you! I had my suspicions as I'd read that white around the nostrils indicates females but I wasn't sure as I'd never had babies so young.
I do love them already so I don't mind whichever gender they are I do have a question though do you think 2 females would be happy living together? I've never owned females before, only had boys in the past so not too sure on the differences etc.
I'll definitely be reading through all the stickies, this looks like a great place to learn everything.
Yep definitely two females. While a pair of females do tend to bicker a bit more than a pair of males, since you have gotten these two together when they are young, they should be fine. I have a pair of females who bicker but they also preen and feed each other lol. Have you thought of names for them yet?

Ahh that's okay, I had noticed they do bicker more than I thought, but nothing serious which is good. It all makes sense now!
Well I had named them Teddy and Rocket, which I'll probably stick with but I always call them 'my boys' which will be hard to get out the habit of
