Yes, bright blue cere, male. They aren't always clear cut, but on that mutation it is very clear. You have a male.

I would 99.9% say male, cere says it all.

And I don't know if this is proven or not, but in my experience, males are more streamlined, where as females tend to have a larger (at least poofier?) head, but I have no science to back this up.
