Answer 1

They sold you a parakeet and didn't insist that you purchase a book?

Answer 2

Usually the only certain way to tell is with blood testing that a vet could do.  Otherwise a good way to guess is if the little bump where the bird's nostrils are is pink or blue in color.  If it is more pink it is likely to be a girl and if it is more blue it is likely to be a boy.
