Hi all,
question for all you zebbo-ers out there, in particular AMCA.
anyone got any Isabels out there? if so how much would you be likely to pay for a pair? Thinking of breeding some with fawns to make the beautiful fawn isabels... and just to breed the I's :D

Why anyone wants to breed all the colour out of cute little zebbies is beyond me :lol: . Definitely one species where the mutations lack the appearance of the original as far as I'm concerned.

Yes Isabels out there its just finding them and you may find it will only be the Zeb clubs that will have most of the Mutations etc. I sold all mine as i could not sell them, i believe alot of people dont know the colours in the Zebs (variety that is) same as my Grey reds could not sell them now everyone wants them. Its a tuff game. We have most of the colours in our club. Had Slates as well but no longer. My Opal photos are in the forum somewhere jaybird and have some for sale at the moment.
