I do not agree with the white nostrils theory...nostrils only info can be deceiving. Basically any white on a budgies cere is female...thats the easiest way to look at it. Link to comment

I do not agree with the white nostrils theory...nostrils only info can be deceiving. Basically any white on a budgies cere is female...thats the easiest way to look at it. I agree with Kaz. I have a couple of boys who have pinky ceres with no white on them, but a lot of times, say in the early morning or when they get stressed out, they will show pale rings around their nostrils. This doesn't make them girls. But it does confuse me, because I've heard the "nostril theory" so much. Your girl seems to have white around the nostrils, BUT, if you look closely, there is also white at the bottom of her cere. In fact, if you try to imagine it as her having a completely white cere, with a blush of blue on the lower half, it may give you a better idea of what to look for. By the way, I like the pied boy next to her. Can we see the other three? Link to comment
