Was able to post the the pic of the black face males in this site's photo album. Didn't want to put someone else's pic on our photobucket page (whole copyright infringement thing) so figured at least this way fellow finch fanatics can appreciate these stunning males.

The picture ended up on page 34 under the adult finch heading, entitled black face black cheek male: black face black cheek CFW male.

I'll post the picture of the Dutch fawn that was posted in the Yahoo groups so everyone can do a comparison to Julie's zebras as well.

Okay all done. That pic ended up on page 13 and idiot that I am, forgot to give the picture a heading. Sorry bout that. Does anyone understand how that picture gallery organizes everything? The pics seem to be just scattered randomly.
30+ Zebra Finches (The actual number constantly changes) 2 Rabbits (1 Mini Rex, 1 Dutch), 1 Grouchy Old Fart, and 1 Dang Redhead

Wow, those boys are stunning! I'm hoping I can just start calling mine 'chocolate' but I doubt most of the serious long-term breeders will go for that haha.

In the gallery, when you go into the section of photos that you want to see at the top right are some additional options - you can view by title, file name, date or position.

Update!

So the pair's three new chicks (being raised by Societies along with BCCB chicks) are very nearly fully coloured up. Three boys.

I'll be keeping one to try to continue the colour.
