So much for being able to trust the man with the stall who knows everything!
I would seperate them as it is not a pleasant life for any of them.

Will be trying to mate, and then will probably attack the other male. Did you not read up on budgies prior to buying them?

Then unless you want babies and lots of fighting you need to seperate them

OMG who on earth sold you two boys and a girl????????
They will fight over her. I suggest you seperate them now, otherwise they will kill each other and her too
he(shrek) dont bother the boy(flick) as much as he bothers the girl(honey) flick keeps him self to himself i had him about 2 months now and shrek keeps hopping on honeys back they just ignore flick |

what do you plan to feed the birds etc?
Id be very wary of your pet shop man. As personally I wouldnt buy any animal from a pet shop, esp a bird. They have very delicate respiratory systems, and you can lose them very quickly. Ideally you would buy one from a reputable breeder. What are the dimensions of the cage? whatever its size you MUST let the birds out for a minimum of 2 hours every day. You also need to get a cover for the cage, as birds suffer in the cold and the heat
The bigger the cage the better for the bird, and try not to accessories too much. Are the birds from the same parents??? I trust this guy as i go to him all the time and i think he knows if anythink happens im coming after him  i dont no how big cage is till tuesday(when i pick them up) yea i already got timetable for cat to be out and let them fly about abit im just going to get them swing, mirror food wise the white thing that goes in cage(4got what its called fish somthink) budgie food, and apple(google told me that) maybe carrot hear and there yes they all same parents |

His like a pet shop they take them home every night(made sure as i put a down payment on two) its like a big shopping complex with diffrent stalls, i looked up on google plus spoke to people with parrots and budgies they told me what to look out for on the bird to make sure its happy they 2 budgies i put a payment on was kissing and looked very happy(tale thing was straight was whistling at each other ect) they advised me to get cockatiel(sp?) cage as im having 2 budgies budgie cage wouldnt be big enough for them
hope this made sense

I strongly suggest that you find a good book about Budgies and their care. Otherwise you may unwittingly end up having sick birds. It is thought that they are easy birds, to an extent..yes, but their diet is often misunderstood.
If you google it, you will find lots of advice about this.
Until they are at least 6 months old, you cannot guarantee the sex.
Birds on a market stall? is that legal?

Depends on how old they are. The cere (the coloured bit on their bills) doesnt change until they are older. When it doesn the males will be blue and the girls brown. Did the breeder not explain that to you? If you need anymore Budgie advice, pm me and I will be happy to help ( my grandad breeds them..his dismay at my Kakariki!)
