If it wasn't for the white (pied) marking covering the lower part it wouldn't be a little bit.

T is right. That pied cock is blackface, and depending on where you got your other pair from, one or both could be blackface with the white covering the proof. That's what I was saying about doubling up on the pied. While I love pied Zebs sometimes it needs care. If you and the birds are happy with the pairings/breeding you have go for it. But I would try to put the young to visual blackface if you have them and like the look.

Thanks Finchbreeder I will put these young ones with black face zebra. Can't separate pair of Paids , they have been together 3 years. They produce charcoals too.
