I think green boy, blue hen.

Hi and welcome tiki!

Agree with Hezz green a boy and blue definitely a hen

Have you any idea of names yet?

[tiki]

Yes! Names are tiki blue and kiwi green!

[tiki]

The green one kiwi has a lot of white around the nostrils but has a pink cere does that mean that it’s a girl or no because the cere has lots of color?

[samwiseg]

Hen birds do usually have light blue ceres with white nares as that is when they are in breeding condition but budgies when young can fool you! Or, should I say, they can fool me

You will have to wait to see what colour the cere changes to in the next week or so to be sure
