Closing down a research breeding colony of Wild Type Zebra Finch. Originally collected (under authority) by the late Dr Richard Zann. Consists of 4-5th generation birds from wild stock. Approx. 40 females remain and will be offered cheaply to interested breeders.

A little bit of irony here, but what an invaluable resource for the 'genuine' serious Zebra Finch mutation breeder

Hope organised Zebra Groups take advantage of this great opportunity

Shame no males remain

That really surprises me :o as a common cry from the anti-mutation people is the lack of guaranteed 'pure' birds

And it is well known that the best mate for any new mutation is a pure normal bird

Any comments from the serious zebra folk

It is a bit of a shame really though the person close to here in Geelong had a hard time even giving them away. Craig

Very strange. I had wild-type Zebras up until about a year ago & had no trouble selling surplus birds @$20pr.
