Philippe BRUNET 1 Report post Posted February 22, 2012 The standard English he asks you that the belly of the classic gray is white or creamy.In France he asked that it be as white as possible.Philippe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finchdude 9 Report post Posted February 22, 2012 Hi paulSome fantastic looking normals there!!Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulm 119 Report post Posted February 22, 2012 Hi PhilippeIn England the standard says for a Normal white belly.These birds are only Normal/splits for breeding with not for showing really,as i knew any hens in the nest would be a different colour and the parents are Fawn x Lightback so no matched pair there,to be honest im not to bothered about showing i like to get out once in a while but i just breed my birds for my pleasure and im into type more than anything.Paul.

Emmy 528 Report post Posted March 13, 2012 Watch out Paul you may just drop it when it shouts back at you telling you just to speak English because you are making a proper mess of Zebra talk and it doesnt understand a chirp you are saying. :lol: EmmyI whistle to mine and they just sit their and put their heads to the side and look at me as though they're thinking "She's not the full shilling".
