The Tell Tail Signs?

Recommended Posts

I have a Male Zebra, Been sold to me last year as a Obbb. I have always thort it could be but could not be.

 

It is normal in color with orange cheeks and orange brested's?
I have been told that the normal has come from the black brested and orange Brested on the Brest bar?

 

Is this True?

Josh,

 

An OBBB zebra is unmistakable in my experience, perhaps you were sold an OB cock that was split for BB. A picture would help when you get a chance!

Hi Josh

 

The orange should be further spread in a OBBB than a OB this will be seen on the body and head most of the time but can differ largely bird to bird, some which i have bred seem almost OBBBBF but are not where as a nest mate can have a lot less orange extension to there colour and depth of colour.

 

If you look at the colour depth in the birds below you can see what i mean also you can see the white on the face is must clearer in some and lacking in others, also the orange spread on the chest is wide in some of the birds, it show up well in the photos of the fawns below.
