Hello, this little fellow hatched on June 27 so a bit young to reliably tell, but I'd appreciate if anyone has any idea if its male of female? The only reason I really care is I want to separate my guys from my gals to prevent any more accidental breeding and if the little one's a dude I'm going to need another flight cage which takes some planning. So, boy or girl, any thoughts?

The pictures were taken on September 28 and the purple on the face is from a breakfast including pear, purple carrot, and raspberry baby food. Let me know if you need better photos, this is not the most photogenic budgie, and prefers to play with my phone than be photographed by it.

Sorry but those photos are way too small and I can't see the cere clearly.

I don't know how to make the picture physically bigger, but hopefully these are close enough for you to get a decent look at the cere.

I tried something else, since the photos kept uploading small. Hopefully this works better.

I thought so, but didn't want to say anything without being sure.
