sam159 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2012 I moved to Spain 5 years ago and have just taken up breeding Zebras again. Having very limited space I can not keep many birds. I have a visual fawn pied cock ( history not known ) x CFW hen which I bred last year. What can I expect to get from this pairing? There are not many variations/ mutations available in the area I live. I have only seen, Normals Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave.H 11 Report post Posted April 9, 2012 From fawn pied x cfw You can expect Normal split fawn, cfw & pied cocks Fawn hens split pied What were the parents of both birds? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sam159 0 Report post Posted April 9, 2012 Hi Dave, Thanks for the explanation. The cock fawn/pied was bought in from local pet shop, so no idea of parentage. the hen was one that I bred last year from a CFW. cock and normal hen. the unusual thing about the cock is that it has pure white cheeks. No sign of colour what so ever. It also has fawn coloured tail bars. last year the produced CFW and Normal hens, CFW and Normal cocks. In their first nest this year I can see two normals one of which is pied and two CFW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave.H 11 Report post Posted May 15, 2012 are the chicks you mention in your last post - from your original CFW x Normal pairing? or do you mean from fawn pied x cfw pair from original pair visually you should produce - normal split cfw cocks - cfw hens from your description, sounds like maybe a cfw cheeked cock ? or maybe a very washed out cfw-fawn cock cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
