You need to look at the the fleshy skin over the beak also called the cree. Males will be a translucent pink and females a opaque white.

This is very difficult to do. You can attempt to spread the down feathers and examine the animal but the gender differention in baby Parakeets is minor. I suggest waiting until the animal is older.
