Tail Color On Lightbacks

Recommended Posts

Hi!

 

The book says that tail in both sexes should be ' Black with white bars' (that's for Normal and Fawn)

Thanks for the answers.  What about fawns? Does anyone have a picture of a lightback fawn hen?  I am still trying to figure out my enigma female.  Thanks.

Thanks jonmpope.  I can see the tail in the bottom picture and it is quite dark - different than my light grey girl.  I am wondering if she is Isabel and light back?  Anyone know that that combination looks like?

Isabel removes all black markings so its not that. Maybe Florida Silver Lightback ?

Grey LB FF(sf)

 

Could you post a picture?

I put up a bunch of pictures in this thread: http://zebrafinchforum.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic/5885-any-guesses-as-to-colors-on-these-youngsters/

 

I have found the breeder I got the parents from.  She has Isabel and lightback in her lines.  She even had penguin a long way back and maybe that as a recessive is still hanging around.  She can't be straight lightback because of the grey tail.
