As pretty as they are,be careful as every light/heavy pied i have tried to establish have proved infertile for some unknown reason. Craig

Nice, I wouldn't mind some either, but to be honest you cant beat the colour of the normals.

Talking to Chainsaw when we were in WA for the zebra Fed show, he told me that the bird in the photo has moulted back to a normal orange breast.

As Zebman said when it moulted it lost all the Pied markings , he was paired to his sister which was also showing Pied but she also moulted normal .
