Fawn Zebra Hen

Post by xdartfrogx » Sat Jul 19, 2014 6:09 pm

I recently got a fawn zebra hen. I find her to be stunning and so pastel in color. I noticed that most fawns have the cheeks the same color as their backs. However, this fawn hen has cheeks the same color as her chest. I ruled out penguin due to their tears on her. Does she look like anything besides fawn to anyone? I understand fawn is sex-linked. If she has anything different than fawn in her, how would that work? Here's some pics of her.

Definitely not penguin, possibly carries the BB (Black breast) gene.
