Yes in Aus we do call them Creambacks.

G'day All,

This fellow is about two months old now. Parents are a Fawn Charcoal Cock and a Silver Hen. Given the discussions here would it be right to call him a Fawn Creamback?

I have a bird that looks exactly the same
I bought hi as a Marked white cock, but in the light his back is kind of fawnish, like an isabel colour.

Danny, They are looking good in colour. Like the chest on the cockbird in the background. Will be geting them going again this year. Hope all the rest of your Zebs are doing well.

I am really impressed with the size and vigour of these birds. They outshine all the others.
