Just a question regarding zeb beak colour.

I had three fledge recently a a fawn and a pied with the last being a "dirty" white.....looks like dusty white.

I have noted it has a white beak whereas the others have a black beak...is this normal for young of this colour?

White, cream and fawn young often (perhaps always?) have a creamy-white, or pink tinged beak, rather than the grey.

Not uncommon for pied birds to have the pied colour on the beak and or legs.
