Aussie Finch Forum

Today, went to a local finch show and bought these zebs to add to my collection and to breed them


Thanks

Well one thing you can guarantee is that they are good quality birds.

That last one on the right is very nice ...

Love the pied cock with the scolloped cheek patch Craig

Nice birds.Good colour.Hope they breed for you

So do you have any particular pairings you are going for with certain mutations??

With the Fawn possible split silver cock bird with the grey hen bird we are trying to achieve a silver and with the Pied cock bird with the pure white hen bird we are trying to get a pied with more white in it.

What do you think FM101

thanks

Sounds about right to me.

You've done well with that Pied Harv, its almost perfectly marked apart from the one check patch, I dare say you could go far with it if you want to show them. One trick I use to use with cock Zebs when showing was to put a very thin wipe of vasaline on the beak to make it shine & clear looking, not sure if this is still done as it's been nearly 15 years since I was full time showing.

very nice, love the Hen in third pic.
Congratulations
