Think it is time I did another dose of outcrossing. These sods are really not doing much as Zebs go. Great looking pairs guys.

I gave him first pick then sold some scrappers. I then got him 40 kgs of seed. dual benefit as he has good stock to outcross to and I'll trade him later. also a good insurance plan if mine ever hit a disaster.finchbreeder wrote: 25 Aug 2021, 09:34 Pleased to hear you are back into them. Good looking bunch - seems the mate did well and is oed a big favour in return.

See elferoz i really dont want the orange to spread like yours i like the clean white front its the bar i have worked on just trying to concentrate on a clean looking bar of orange see started with black and managed to get the orange to replace now working on contrast and clean looking feathers my idea is a red bar pattern that would be symmetrical to wild type pattern i know it may sound weird but thats the beauty of zebs they are good to experiment withelferoz777 wrote: 25 Aug 2021, 21:23go to the first post. they were what I got yo after 2 to 3 yrs. birds I started were like yours.Jebtech95 wrote: 25 Aug 2021, 10:20 After a few years of breeding finally got some males with now black across the chest
