Hello all. I have recently got a second budgie. I am not sure if its a boy or girl . The cere is confusing me. I also think that Crumb is pretty young but i am not sure and would like to know if his/her exact age can be recognized? Thank you all for your help and time

I would guess age at not older than 3-4 months and sex to be male.

I would hedge my bets on Crumb being female because there’s what appears to be a lot of white around the nares, or is that just the lighting and it’s a mauve cere with more mauve/blue rings? The bars on Crumb’s head down to the cere show a young bird. What a lovely colour and sweet face. Congratulations on your new baby budgie.

I think Crumb is male and less than four months old - he hasn’t had his first moult as yet.
