Depends on how old your birds are. If they are young it is sometimes difficult to tell. As they get older and are ready to mate, the male has a bluish cere. That is the band , just above his beak. Or sometimes looks bluish, purple tint. The hen for sure has a light colored cere. Mainly a beige color, just above the beak. If the one you call white, turns to a slight beige, then for sure it is a hen. Hard to tell when they are first hatched , but by the six week old stage , then you can be more accurate on determining the sex.

"In general, the color of a budgie's cere is the simplest indicator of sex in adult budgies: males are blue, and females are white, light beige, reddish, or brown. While it is fairly accurate, the color of the cere cannot always be used to sex a budgie. With some color varieties, like albinos, lutinos, fallows, and some recessive pieds like harlequins, both males and females have beige or pink colored ceres. Other visual sexing methods include females having an almost invisible, whitish rings around their nostrils, and males having more rounded, bulbous ceres, both of which are often hard to recognize to the untrained eye. And many people also say that females bite harder than males and that males have rounder heads while females heads are more flat on the top. "

It is almost impossible to tell the sex of an immature parakeet. When they are older you can tell by the cere on their beak( males will have a blue band at the top of their beak)

If you do get two, make sure they are the same age so they grow up together. But even so, you cannot be sure they will be best friends. Cats have their own idea about who they like and why, and it does not always match our expectations. I have two cats, and that is ok for us. Do consider the costs though, it is not cheap to keep cats responsibly and properly.

Well, the part of the beak between the face and the beak is the part u need to look at. if it is blue, its a guy and if its pale brown, then its a grl.

Look at their noses....if the nose has light blue or dark blue color on it....it is a male. If it is a female, the nose will be skin color
