So do you think the one on our left is a male and the one on the right is female . That's what I thought I brought them as a pair but the young female sits on top of the pied have you seen this before it made me question it's sex.

So the closer one to the camera might be a whiteface cinnamon split to pied and I don’t know the sex but the other one is a Whiteface cinnamon male?
I agree, if the bird is under a year (back right) and so many say " I had one like that, BUT in white face you can not be sure in pieds/ split pieds/ even PEARLS. I have a beautiful White face DNA'd MALE pearl. only the normal splits of these can indicate (even after sometimes 1 yr. IME

What makes use think it's a young male? From it's behaviour I think it could be I think the bird is under 6 months which makes it even harder to tell.
