In the last photo (bird on the right) looks like a hen. Were the photos taken in natural light?

Very pretty - I leave it to the experts to tell you the gender.

Yes, Marianne Marlow - I can see the difference now. Is it just the colour or do hens have flatter ceres as well? |

I'm not sure if they have flatter ceres, it's not something I have noticed before. Anyway, this bird looks like a male in some photos and a hen in others, maybe it's a case of wait and see!!

Thanks for the reply’s everyone! I was going crazy looking at pics of other birds and thought it was a bit close to tell. I will keep saying boy for now and see what happens. Just need to name him, been struggling for weeks haha.

I think that it is just that the cere isn't as dark as the other male, and remembering that this is only a baby, that is quite understandable. I still don't see any whiteness around the nares.

I also see a boy. Looks like there’s blue right up by the nares, and his dilute mutation could affect the depth of color of his cere at this young age  |
