Welcome!

So, parrotlets aren’t sexually dimorphic, they can’t be sexed visually.
You’ll need your avian vet to do a blood test.
If I were you, I would swap out one of those dowel perches, to provide more variation for your little birdies feet!

Very cute baby btw!

Good morning. But parrotlet are sexually dimorphic. The male except the albino has the cobalt blue colour at the end of the wings, behind the eyes and at the upper side to they body.

Oh my goodness. You’re absolutely right!

I’ve not kept them myself but have heard they weren’t. Sorry for the confusion! I’ve never actually looked it up to check.
