More then likely....although I'm not the person to ask.... but of all the mutations I think the Fawn Java and Fawn Zebra are very attractive..

Really good read! This has inspired me to give get some more "endangered" or "at risk" finches. I've got a spare 1m by 2m flight this season. For all the guys in the know more than me what would you recommend for me to get a couple of pairs of? I would consider myself an intermediate breeder but want to do my part in helping were I can. I already keep a section aside for silverbills which are fantastic little finches. Thanks in advance!
