I think and I could be very wrong that A,B,D,E are females and C is a male.

Thankyou Jodie,I will take some better photos tomorrow of each bird individually it might be better to see... I dont want to wake them right now :P

Oh thats sweet of you, and yeah it's best not to wake them. Other members would more likely be a bit more sucessful than me. I am a little rusty as I have been out of breeding now for about 2 years.

But good luck with them all, they are very sweet.

Hi Chilled

 

D and C look like males to me and B female but E and A is hard to tell from the picture's.

Is there any possible chance you can get clear pictures without the flash as sometimes the flash washes or distorts cere colour.

But I am certian that C is a male and B is female. D looks like a female in the picture but a picture without flash would be a great help.

Cheers again.

Jodie.

That one looks to be male to me. The black that was covering their ceres and beaks were confusing me, I was thinking some were being made to look darker by the by the black covering their ceres. But this photo is very clear and this one looks to be a defonate male.

The flash is lightening up his cere, but looking back at the first photo of chick E, he's a male spangle budgie, either mauve or grey. To tell between mauve and grey, look at the cheek patches. I can't see the color too well in the photos. If they are grey, he's grey, if they are a dark blue, he's mauve.
