New CFW Zebras

Post by ranchnanny » Thu Feb 09, 2012 5:45 pm

My dear friend gave me her two CFW hens yesterday. They are very pretty little birds with just a hint of grey on top of their heads and light bands on their tails.

Congrats! One of my favorite mutations of Zebbies. My male and female are on 5 fertile eggs. They're due any day now.
