zebba 'D' 43 Report post Posted October 8, 2013 Hi claire, Im really unsure with him to be honest, he was brought from a pet shop so i dont no the history behind him, ill probably only find out when I breed him which is going to be my next problem what to put him with.

Dan Hellawell 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 just seen a pic whilst doing a google search, could it be a ContinentalCFW BC? or is it too grey for that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zebba 'D' 43 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Hi dan, It looks more grey to be honest like a silver/white grey. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolk flyer 208 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Chris, Changed my mind with the hen, it's a Fawn hen split BC. Sometimes with BC if it's carrying, you can see a faint BC's By the way had 2 zeb's out in a cage yesterday and they are both BCCFW but they have a lot of the grey lacing on. Parents are BFBC Grey x BCCFW When their out proper i'll post a pic of them on here. Trevor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zebba 'D' 43 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Hi Trevor, I have put the female with a fawn split bb male. What would the out come of this be? Are you still putting your final answer on the white bc mate? Be nice to see some pictures of them mate they sound interesting. Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolk flyer 208 Report post Posted October 9, 2013 Chris, If they are taken at face value you should get 25% Fawn M & F The rest will be Fawn split for BC, BB and BCBB, If you get BC Fawns out the male will be split BC as well, Trevor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zebba 'D' 43 Report post Posted December 14, 2013 Hi all, Im still stuck on this hen, Would you say bbbc fawn or bc fawn split bb Cheers, Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zebba 'D' 43 Report post Posted December 14, 2013 This is one of her young if it helps Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolk flyer 208 Report post Posted December 14, 2013 Chris, She's deffo not a BCBB fawn due to her tail 100% The youngster in photo will be a male or a hen split for BCBB, and you should always get fawns out, Well done good start there, Trevor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare L 175 Report post Posted December 30, 2013 Hi Chris, I like the chick, has it coloured up yet? I have to agree with Trevor, will be a split for BCBB, I currently have 4 BC fawns due to fledge within the next week. ( Thanks to Trevor for supplying the BC fawn hen) Are you after breeding fawn BCBB? I have a fawn BC/BB cock which I will be pairing next year to hopefully get fawn BCBB, what I have noticed with him having BB in him is that the cheek patches and flank markings are alot darker so will be using this to try and get full black on fawn. ( fingers crossed ) Might take a while but I have finally decided to concentrate on this colour Clare Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
