If your bird is younger than twelve months, it may be impossible to visually identify whether it is male or a female without the help of the vet. Normally, in adult male parakeets, the cere will be blue or purplish (if your bird is recessive pied, fallow, lacewing, lutino, or dark-eyed clear then the cere will be bright purple or pink).
