Hello and welcome! Sorry your post was missed until now.



Your budgies are still quite young and so they do not have the clear bright blue of boys or the pale, tan, or brown of females. It will be much easier to tell in a few months.



That said, I would say they look like immature females to me. At this stage boys tend to have a more pinkish purpley cere, while females have pale white around their nostrils and more of a pale blueish cere. But it is really really early to say with much confidence at all.


Very pretty birds you have. :)
