The "George" zebra finch (new mutation)

Post by finchman101 » Wed Jul 13, 2011 3:31 am

There is currently a new zebra finch mutation new to australia (where I live, yay :D )
It is currently and only owned by one man who will not be selling them any time soon, and if it does sell in years to come it won't be imported over seas which I know that many people on here don't live in Australia, sorry guys..... :cry: :evil:
Here's the link for more information and pictures: :D

I heard of them...shame he does not sell them. They would make for a very interesting addition to an aviary.

Another that would be interesting is the Grizzle...have you ever seen or do you own one of these?
