I reckon 2 males.

Male zebra finches have a red beak, females have an orange beak.

If the birds have colour, the males have the orange cheek patch too.

I believe the same as Rod, but I don't go by beak colour but instead by the fact they both have large heads, as a couple years ago I had a whit hen that had a beak as red as a cock birds

This is why I find white birds frustrating. And my new cock who was supposed to increase the black on the black line (yes he did in his first round) is busy producing them. Ahhh
