So I have always thought kiwi was a female but today I saw what looks like balls. I'm not sure what to think. She is housed with my other females and none of them have gotten pregnant and I've never seen kiwi trying to mount the others. I'm attaching a picture please help?

That is definitely a boy. Separate from the females immediately, get them in baby safe cages and start counting 111 days- they could be pregnant.

Well is there any way you can tell if they are pregnant? Kiwi has been its them since birth so for about a year. I really don't think they are but I don't know
 
It could be that either he or the girls have not not been ready to breed before now. Also, many chins are really good at hiding pregnancy. Follow the advice above and separate them immediately. Just because they haven't had babies yet doesn't mean it can't happen.
