Omg omg, my first silver baby

Post by finchman101 » Thu Aug 04, 2011 1:40 am

Yay guys I have finally fledged my first silver zebra finch. The father is a silver and mother is a CFW fawn hen
He came from a clutch of 4 but the other 3 look normal but do have silver bits under their chin and places like that. Will that mean they are split to silver if they don't show it???
Will get some photos later :D

Congratulations! Have you seen the back and tail? Silvers are stunning. The silvers that my one pair through reminds me of a silver color from a pack of crayons.

Those pics are so adorable, I almost want zebs, but not today. My other finches would not like it. They are stunning.
