Unsure anymore

So when I bought my first two budgies, the lady who sold them to me told me it was a boy and a girl. I got those budgies because I had found my now yellow budgie in the yard eating my chicken's feed haha so I got her two companions. It was fate

The boy flew away eventually--he was super adventurous. Now I still have the "girl" but I think she's a he after all haha.

I would like to ask you all to help me identify what gender my budgies are

Thank you for your time!!

My blue budgie (named Kairi) is the one we were told was a girl.

My yellow one... (Sora) I believe she's a girl lol. She's the one we found in our yard.

And my snowy one (Vanille), well I was told she was for sure a girl but now I'm not sure about her anymore either

I got her along with Jupiter and she will be lonely without him around now so I'd like to make sure I bring her the right companion if that time comes

The budgie on the first two pics is a boy and so is your yellow/blue budgie.
The one on the last two pics is a girl.
You have a beautiful little flock!

Well, I must say, you're in for a surprise

Kairi is a stunning little boy! His cere is mottled blue which is common in pied budgies.

Sora is also a little boy--his cere is a clear translucent pink which indicates male. Since he's recessive pied, his cere will stay that colour his whole life

But Vanille is definitely a beautiful little girl

Your budgies are beautiful!

EDIT: Darn it, Aluz beat me

So now you know for sure since we both posted the same thing!

Wow, my little sister and I are super shocked!

We totally thought Sora was a girl for the longest! I was having doubts about Vanille being a boy and it turned out to be Sora

haha
