I suspect it to be a male, but I'm not sure. He seems to be a recessive pied from what I can see.

Here's some pics, I tried my best to get good ones. He's clearly young as well.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm... calling budgie experts!

Meanwhile, I guess I'll GUESS he's a HE.

But in any event, that's a gorgeous, gorgeous bird!

Yeah, I thought so too but who knows [emoji14] some people gender budgies as a second nature! And yes! He's such a handsome little birdie!

I'm guessing he as the cere is more of a purple-ish

I'm guessing male, but that's just off of past experience. Chrissy's cere was the same color, until he was about 1 year old.

He is adorable either way!

You have a male! Congratulations! (I had a yellow male parakeet in the past and his cere was the same color).

I'm going to use all of my expert knowledge here and I will say that what you have there is a smol borb.

Really though until a bit older you won't fully know, looks like a male but could be a female in disguise.

Really adorable bird and such a perfect little coat on them
