Boy or Girl?

Hi everyone, could someone please help me understand if my budgie is a boy or a girl?:) It might be a bit early to tell as my bird is around 2.5 months old, but I want to find him/her a partner and don't want to make a mistake. I very much appreciate your help!! Thanks a lot!

Thank you, the colour was white a few days ago but now it's becoming more blue. No, I'm not planning on breeding, just wanted to find him a friend because he's very social.
Hi, do you think this can be a girl? Thanks for your help!!!

You will need to post additional pictures for an accurate assessment

If you are planning to get a friend for your bird, you should plan to get one of the SAME gender.
If you have mixed genders, it is very important to do everything necessary to prevent breeding.
Budgies are much healthier and happier when they are never bred.
