Penguin zebra genetics...

I picked up a zebra finch yesterday. Her parents were penguins and she appears to be a fawn penguin. What could I pair her with to get more penguins? Would it have to be with a male that is at least split for penguin or would it work combining her with another recessive colour mutation?

Since this mutation is recessive you are going to need another penguin or a split one to get more penguins. Apperently it is hard to see that a bird is split for this mutation so you would need to know the parentage.
