I'm pretty sure its a girl, I am new to all this but someone will correct me if I am wrong. The Cere seems to be tanned in colour whereas it will be bluish in a boy. When the boys are young they can have a light purple tinge. She is very pretty! As I was told when I first joined natural wood perches are better on their feet.

Cheers,

Trish.

Thanks! First i did think that she/he was a girl but then I saw her/him interacting with my female who had laid eggs and it was regurtitating food into her mouth so i wasn't sure!

Yeah they all live in an aviary with wooden purchaes form the tree! just in this cage overnight when the aviary was being transported to my house.

Well maybe she will be a good mummy one day it seems she has a good instinct for it!

Its a boy double factor dominant pied. Most DF dom pieds have two colours on their cere.

Girls do feed girls too. I have two inside budgies who are sisters... and they feed each other, so using that as a way to sex budgies is not accurate! ;)

I agree with Kaz, even with the blurry picture you can see the blue is pretty deep.
