Purchased these two cuties last week and have been trying to take photos but they won't sit still

they are so cute and tiny. Don't know if they are male or female. I have named them Patch and Ditto.
Enjoy......

Are these hard to sex like the Owl Finches?

Very nice looking Orange Cheeks. They could be both males, but it is difficult to sex them from your picture.
