hi stuart, welcome to the site. This is a fab site for info or any questions that need answering, or even a friendly chat. Chris

hi. Interesting mate, what would i have to put with her to get orange breast. She came from my father flight. If you take a look at my gallery pics. The silvery looking pheao male are like what she breed with(out of interest what is the correct colour for males in the pics) she has had 3 young to came out like fawns and 1 came out very dark head and down back and smoky grey body and wing markingsThey not fully coloured up yet any ideas what they could be.Cheers all chris

hi guys,Yes she does have very faint marking like a male. Not sure on parents mate. Only had her today nice size bird to.Any ideas on what would best to pair her. Chris

Hi all, can anyone help me identify this bird? I think it might be a fawn black-breast female, not too sure though. Cheers,Chris.

hi all, i have just had 2 pied males zebs 2010 both of a very good size, is it best to breed pied to pied or would you breed to other colours. I am not lookin to show my birds but wondered what they look for in the pied colour/bird.Chris

hi trevor,Thanks for the info mate will try and study it better. I am lookin forward to breeding this type of breed. Would be nice to get some nearly black zebs or orange. I also have the size on my side with the birds i have which is a bonus.I have been readin up on the other add about the black zebra. Would be so nice to own a few some day.Chris

hi trevor/paul,I have a very stocky orange breast male that i may put to the female. What colour should i get out of the young. I also have a large black breast female zeb. But she is paired to a very nice lookin pied in the flight. Dont no what would be the best way around it. If i did pair the black face male with the black breast female, what will the off spring be.Are the dom colours in zebs always dark, eg bf, bb, bc. Or can you get dom colours in other types.Chris

hi paul, i understand it all better now mate cheers for that. Looking forward to breeding this type of breed. I have the black together at the mo nesting to. Ill see how they go. Thanks for the info mate.Chris

hi paul,Would you still pair the 2 together or split them mate, if split them what birds would you put to them or does it make any difference. The male i have is very large more taller than stocky. Female is a nice size.So what ever you put with them male or female you should get black face out the nest. If so let say i put the male with a white female will the young be carrying the gene. Or will they be split for black face. I am realy looking forward to working with this pair. Do you have any young for sale mate.Chris

hi paul,So you only need a male or female then to have the black face gene carried over. I only have the one pair but might see if i can get another. I dont no what it is about this type of finch but i love the marking on the bird.Chris

nice lookin birds mate, are they this years young. Will you have any for sale. The pair i have seem to be taller. Nice lookin pair will upload some pics soon. How many pairs of this type have yov got mate.Chris

hi all, i have not long just got a massive pair of black face zebra, does anyone else breed this type of finch. The male is a normal black face and the female is a fawn black face. Chris

hi brian, welcome to the site. This is a fab site mate, good bunch of people willing to help out in anyway.Chris

This sounds like a interesting thing to do, I have seen the eumo pics and they are cracking colours. I have a male black breast-black crest nice large birda take a look at my pics. he would need to go down with a black face female tho , It would be nice to see how people do next season withthis colour of breed.regard chris
