easier when they are over a year old, their nose(cere) turns blue or brown. Blue male, Brown Female. Usually females have lighter feet and male have it more grayish. The problem is when they are less than a year old, you still can't tell much and the body shape sometimes don't tell much either. If they are young it's harder to tell but usually the females have a blue tint on their nose(cere) and the males have a pinkish tint, which is funny. The special kinds are harder to tell though. I do like some of the tips here but a lot of it is very hard to tell when they are young. I had a male bird that looked like a female literally the only thing that gave away was the feet color and cere color when he was older.
some female budgies also have light blue ceres instead of brown. they are easy to tell apart, because male budgies have dark blue ceres, not light blue

I have two blue budgies and I just put a nest in their cage and the one I thought was a male actually turned out to be a female 😂 Her cere turned brown and I was like; *"what the hell? U were supposed to be a male, so what happened?"* Yeah so *he* is now a *she*
I'm still stuck on my budgie. It is an albino budgie who has a tanish and blue sided cere. It isnt loud but it can be loud when my make leaves the cage. So Pleas HELP ME!!!
I bet is female..female tend to have tan colors on their ceres and of course they change shades from pink to whitish blue then tan and a bit brownish. ..male is very pink and as gets older he can change to purple or very dark blue
what was that, I got two boy budgies and both there Ceres are blue so your birds a male if it has that too! If it’s tan or pink or browny it’s a female.
If he sits on the eggs then that's fine. My male cockatiel would do the same so I would get him out so the female would go in the nest box. If your bird is also tamed then u could do the same as i did. But if not and he *sits* on the eggs then don't disturb him, he just wants to be helpful (i think) but my male cockatiel *sometimes* would let the female in but would go in the box and steal her eggs and put them underneath him 😂😅
My blue budgie a lite blue cere with white around the nostril. His legs are a little bit blue. I'm questionning about it's gender. I think he is 4 month old max. What do you think?
I don’t think you need music. If you think you need it, please lower down so we can keep up with your voice over. Many thanks for the info you provide us with. Really appreciate it.
you are 100% right, this video is one of the first ones I've made, and I got told that the background music is very loud, so I did pay attention more to the music to keep quite, (we learn as we move forward), and to compensate for the first couple of videos I am adding subtitles to all my videos as well, I think I will get to this video by the next week and add captions. Thanks for your advice
I enjoyed your video, but still can't tell what gender my new budgie is. I decided to do a DNA test. I lost a female parrotlet to egg binding so I want to know the gender of my new budgie so if she is female, I will be looking for early signs of egg binding.
I don't breed, but did allow one relentlace little lady rear 3 babies. They are 3 weeks old. Mom is regular green possibly with 1 dark factor, dad is sky blue Opaline. Baby #1 shows a lot of blue in the wings (Opaline?). Baby 2 has been a mystery so far, until it clicked today and I researched cinnamon. She (if she is cinnamon and I understood correctly, she would be a girl?), is a lovely mix of shades of light browns, not grey or black. She has just begun to show very light blue on her back. #3 is also showing a very small amount of blue on its back, wings appear off white/grey and black. So, what I am truly asking is, if #2 is cinnamon, did I understand correctly?
Hello there from India .. I'm still not being able to figure out the gender of my budgies (my first). Its been a little above 2 months I got them. I can see the color of the ceres changing slightly .. But not showing any signs of mating. I'm perplexed at the moment .. Don't know what to do. Really like your videos though. Very informative 👍👍👍
I have a rare famale budgie and shes back was White and shes chest was a combined color(combination of blue, purple and White), have Pink feets and nose and Black eye whit an not observabile Grey and have 4 monts. Its a girl ot not?
I had two budgies for a little over a year one male and one female. I wanted to get another budgie to join as they have a happy life and we have plenty of room for more love. I went to the same store and bought a very young budgie with a pink cere hoping it will be a male as they are friendlier. However, now that the new budgie is home my older male budgie will not leave it alone everywhere the baby goes he is right on top of it tapping his beak on it quite forcefully. Obviously, he is trying to mate but the baby is too young. My male budgie is being obnoxious coming on too strong. Yesterday he was tapping his beak so hard on the baby that a little blood came out of the baby's cere. She/he is too young to know how to defend themself as my older female usually pecks at the male to chase him away. Naturally, I separated them but the baby loves the older ones and wants to be by them. Also, the male s screaming his head off so he can get to the baby. Is there anything I can do to get my male budgie to back off?
@@jax_1384 Everything has calmed down finally. Our new baby is in fact a boy and found his own voice to earn respect in the pecking order. All is well as can be with three little crazy budgies
Hi guys I have a pair of budie. Female laid eggs. Sat on eggs but eggs did not hatched. One of my friend said male Budgie has an issue you need to change the male. Is this true ?? Should I replace it with new male Budgie. Any idea ?
Thanks, I was scared I got a female budgie for my male budgie because I'm not ready for eggs and someone told me that boys have blue and females have pink.
I have 2 males lol one named mini P one named dough boy both have blue ceres that changed from pinkinsh purple to blue.. they are both going through eye changes right now. They are both very vocal and musical and they love to barf in each other’s mouths.
I'm looking for a video with a simple answer and explanation but intstead this video gave more hard time to know and even more complicated. 😂 I just want to know by the looks and sound the gender of this bird. 🤔
Correct me if I'm wrong but I always thought it was the colour of the 'bulging' bit above the top of the beak (its nose?)? Brown for female and blue for male? I'm only up to 3:25 so maybe it comes later? :)
I have an unusual situation. I thought I had a male and a female and I thought they may have bonded so I made them a nesting box. Sure enough, the female starts laying eggs and now has 10 of them. Unfortunately none of them are fertilised and the male has developed a brown cere. so I have 2 females both sitting on all these eggs together in the nesting box! I hardly see them anymore except when they dash out to eat and poo!
i need help please. I cannot tell the sex of my budgies. I have asked on alot of forums and i get conflicting answers. Can you help me please???? They both head bob and feed eachother. They have been together since they hatched but are not related. Can i send you a couple of photos please??
Now i'm confused✨ I have 2 and theyre are 2 yrs old. I was told one of them is a boy and a girl but from the beak color they seem to be both girls. They're always kissing and feeding eachother tho.... I'm so confused lol
I wish I had seen this video sooner. I believe I have a recessive pied male with dark eyes and a pink cere. Then my blue bungie's cere just turned brown so she's female.all these months, I thought she was a male because of her light blue cere. I may have to adjust their names.
So confused on the gender of my 5.5 year old budgie. When I bought him he had a beige cere (under 3 months old) then it turned bright dark blue with white around the nostrils. Now it is brown and crusty (like a female in breeding condition) he has always had pink/tan feet
I have a budgie named emerald and in the picture of what a male and female look like,emerald looks female.but the people who gave him/her to us said emerald was male
A bit confused. I have 2 Budgies ... one is turquoise and white ... the other is grey and white ... both are young and male/female is still a bit iffy. Would I consider them Opaline? There's no yellow. My guess is Opaline.
if you need more assistance, we have a facebook group, where you can post pictures and ask for further help. it is amazing the amount of people that would love to help you :)
I have a blue female but a yellow/green spangle (maybe cinnamon) which I don't have a clue... Its got a light pinky purple cere but I can't tell what it is. Shame I can't put a picture on so people could help
I had to use cere color and behavior to figure it out...my blue Budgie Angel is probably male. Cere is like blue- purple but the bird also taps on a mirror all day and tries to feed the new budgie so I’m guessing male. When I first got the new budgie he even tried to get on the back of the other one so I’m pretty sure it’s a male but he’s probably still immature. As for the new one I think it might be a female because it’s much quieter and has a different car that’s much quieter but it’s young yet and I can’t really tell this year appears white with a little blue but young females can have blue. So confusing!
I think my little baby is a girl. She has a light blue/white cere and doesn't sing much except with a sqawking noise. Although she is not weaned yet so it might be too early to tell
Hi I have a pair of budgies and I still can't tell the sex. I have a white and blue with a pi k cere and a yellow and green with a brown cere which they said is a male and the other is a female. Please help.
I've just watched the last video you have uploaded (1 week ago) and if these the budgies you are talking about they are very cute. and fyi they are male and female lovely little feathered friends :D
@@OvermarsGaming the purple cere is the male and the other is the female, actually I mention that in this video ( for young budgies ) maybe you haven't watched the whole video. but yea , this how you can distinguish young budgies
Informative! Careful when mentioning X-linked mutations though, since birds don't have X and Y chromosomes! It is the mother, not the father, who determines the sex in birds: "The sex chromosomes in birds are designated Z and W, and the male is the homomorphic sex (ZZ) and the female heteromorphic (ZW). In most avian species the Z chromosome is a large chromosome, usually the fourth or fifth largest, and it contains almost all the known sex-linked genes." I think this is what you mean when talking about the ino/opaline/cinnamon mutations. If a daughter displays a mutation the mother doesn't, it must due to the Z--linked trait from the father. Conversely, if a child displays the same sex-linked mutation as the mother, there is no way to tell the gender since it could be carried on either the Z or W chromosome, right?
Just got a very young blue budgie not at all sure if it's male or female...it's cere is pinkish blue it is most likely 8 or 10 weeke old , guess I'll just have to wait.
Hi I have had my birds for about a year and a half but I don't know when they were born they both have similar colored Ceres but my one who I think is a boy has a more blue and purple around the edges while the other one which at first I thought was a girl because she had a more pinkish color has now turned dark blue she seems to scream aggressively most of the time like you said and the boys sings More Often they also click their beaks together and my other one tries to feed her please help me or at least what you think their genders would be thank you
wow thx I just had 5 bby budgies and 2 where rudinos I didn't know their cere doesn't change fyi my indoor aviary is so tall that to change their food and water I have to get up on a chair
I am having issues determining the gender of my budgie I believe it’s ino or creamino and is a baby all white with barely noticeable yellow on the face and red eyes the cere is white with outer very light pink nostrils are white as well
indigo 88 would it make sense to get one first and tame it before getting a second one? I heard that if you get 2 together they tend to shut you out more and are harder to tame
G yep get one first then maybe get a friend if you want. Even after being tamed they can turn on you and stop trusting you if you get them a bird friend.
I brought my budgies 1 girl and 1 boy but Everytime someone visit they will tell me it's both male😅 Also the yellow one(female) will jump on my hand and have her feathers up then she will wipe her butt on me😂 I don't know what it means😅 please help
I dont know how old my budgie is... I think it is a girl... But I dont know for sure. We have had our budgie for a few weeks now and it is still not wanting to come out of its cage. I think it may be OCD because it has a routine it has to do in order to step up on my finger. Lol if i do it wrong, it gets irritated and taps where it wants me to put my finger. Then it will come step up on its own. Lol
Can anyone help I'm still confused, my budgie has light brown in the middle of the cere and on both sides is light blue He or she is about 7 months old I think, I got him or her in March this year and it was a phew weeks old when I got it, thank you 🙂 Edit: ik this video is 3 years ago so no one might not reply
I have two and after watching every video I can find, I still have no idea what gender 1 of them is. It has faded white around nostrils and the cere is skin tone? some light conditions looks faint blue and others looks faint brown its a primarily yellow with neon green belly and on the nape the lines or lack of form an hour glass shape. It's bigger then the other so I assume its around 8 months old any one have an idea as to the gender?
seems like you are describing a female, anyhow if you are still wondering you can join our facebook group, where everybody there is willing to give his opinion, advice and help when needed.
I have a recessive pied female. I know this because her cere is brown. However, I have seen her trying to mount my other female and bob her head up and down. Does this mean anything or is she just ✨special✨
I have one green budgie and one yellow. Green looks like a male and yellow looks like a female. They started kissing recently so i think they are of opposite gender
I already knew the gender of my Budgies. I have 3 Males and 3 addult females. And I have got tow Chicks and I am thinking Ther females because of their coulors.
Useless. You assume everyone gets their budgie from a breeder. I just wanted to know how to tell the sex of the bird...hopefully someone else can help me.

Just got a very young blue budgie not at all sure if it's male or female...it's cere is pinkish blue it is most likely 8 or 10 weeke old , guess I'll just have to wait.

My budgie is 3years of and can someone tell me in what age is she gonna lay eggs?
Hi I have had my birds for about a year and a half but I don't know when they were born they both have similar colored Ceres but my one who I think is a boy has a more blue and purple around the edges while the other one which at first I thought was a girl because she had a more pinkish color has now turned dark blue she seems to scream aggressively most of the time like you said and the boys sings More Often they also click their beaks together and my other one tries to feed her please help me or at least what you think their genders would be thank you
you can join our facebook page, and share pictures of your budgies, everybody is willing to help there :)
wow thx I just had 5 bby budgies and 2 where rudinos I didn't know their cere doesn't change fyi my indoor aviary is so tall that to change their food and water I have to get up on a chair
my lutino 5month boy budgie has a tiny bit of blue on his lower back and tiny blue feathers near his face, is that normal??
the tiny feathers are his cheek patches but they’re blue
Here's everything you need to know about Inos => ruclips.net/video/G0HQNIqHBwQ/видео.html
I am having issues determining the gender of my budgie I believe it’s ino or creamino and is a baby all white with barely noticeable yellow on the face and red eyes the cere is white with outer very light pink nostrils are white as well
I’m planning to get a budgie
Get few of them so one is not lonely
indigo 88 would it make sense to get one first and tame it before getting a second one? I heard that if you get 2 together they tend to shut you out more and are harder to tame
G yep get one first then maybe get a friend if you want. Even after being tamed they can turn on you and stop trusting you if you get them a bird friend.
I think I have a male because the cere is a purplish blue.
Linda Licata same
Isnt the bird cage too small for that many birds in the intro.
yes it is, it was taken from a pet store, and almost all pet stores I know, they keep the birds in a very small cage unfortunately!
I have an Ino albino. I believe it is female but I am not positive. The cere is a light bluish purple.
I brought my budgies 1 girl and 1 boy but Everytime someone visit they will tell me it's both male😅
Also the yellow one(female) will jump on my hand and have her feathers up then she will wipe her butt on me😂 I don't know what it means😅 please help
Thats how they mate👩🏻🦲✨
@@btsrules8126 but the girl budgie did it to me everytime I stick my hand😂😂😂
I have a yellow budgie.. The Cere is pink white and blue. I think it's a girl. My mom thinks it's a boy. I don't know what to think anymore.
My bird is full white with bkack eyes and a whitish leg what tyoe is it
I dont know how old my budgie is... I think it is a girl... But I dont know for sure. We have had our budgie for a few weeks now and it is still not wanting to come out of its cage. I think it may be OCD because it has a routine it has to do in order to step up on my finger. Lol if i do it wrong, it gets irritated and taps where it wants me to put my finger. Then it will come step up on its own. Lol
I'm here because I'm getting 2 budgies, and I dont want to have baby budgies so I wanna get 2 girls or 2 boys
Wait if it's yellow or white or both yellow and white it's a female?
Who came because your budgies cere has the white colour with a little shade of pink in the top of the cere and little blue in the bottom of the cere
Can anyone help I'm still confused, my budgie has light brown in the middle of the cere and on both sides is light blue
He or she is about 7 months old I think, I got him or her in March this year and it was a phew weeks old when I got it, thank you 🙂
Edit: ik this video is 3 years ago so no one might not reply
I have two and after watching every video I can find, I still have no idea what gender 1 of them is. It has faded white around nostrils and the cere is skin tone? some light conditions looks faint blue and others looks faint brown its a primarily yellow with neon green belly and on the nape the lines or lack of form an hour glass shape. It's bigger then the other so I assume its around 8 months old any one have an idea as to the gender?
seems like you are describing a female, anyhow if you are still wondering you can join our facebook group, where everybody there is willing to give his opinion, advice and help when needed.
my budgie has a THICC forehead and is white and baby blue at the body
I still don’t know what gender is my bird is there somewhere I can text a image to you ? Of my bird
you can join our facebook group and post pictures😀
I have a girl but it did take a long time to be obvious by the colour of her ceare
i have the budgies that is yellow like your and green dark green
My budgie Molly has the exact wooden mirror as your birds
i have a opaline budgie wich i think is a male budgie cause it has alot of black stripes on his wings and head-
Does it work tho?
nice
The pet store didn't have any information on them. Including age, if the kids didn't have their hearts set would have walked away
I have a recessive pied female. I know this because her cere is brown. However, I have seen her trying to mount my other female and bob her head up and down. Does this mean anything or is she just ✨special✨
Me : the nostrils / beak thingy is the most reliable brown ish pink orange = female blue = male
I have one green budgie and one yellow. Green looks like a male and yellow looks like a female. They started kissing recently so i think they are of opposite gender
If the budget nose is pinkish is it a boy or a girl
That’s was too confusing for me cuAse I don’t know my birds parents got anxiety too
I already knew the gender of my Budgies. I have 3 Males and 3 addult females. And I have got tow Chicks and I am thinking Ther females because of their coulors.
I have a budgie that is white and has red eye
albino
Mine has a blue and brown cere
I still don't know if my budgie is male or female
Useless. You assume everyone gets their budgie from a breeder. I just wanted to know how to tell the sex of the bird...hopefully someone else can help me.
I couldn't identify my budgries...😒😒
I have an opaline budgie
Best way to know by their nose color
What 😳 this video for ...I lost it..it must be cooking recipe
