They can be but their disposition seems a bit different than the smaller standard size zebras. They are a bit more docile.

And there is that beauty !!!
Is that the same mutation, like the one in my post, which I was asking about ???

I just love LOVE those soft delicate shades. So so different from the original Zebra colours.

It never ceases to amaze me how genetics can be so manipulated as to produce something so altogether different. I was going to ask how on earth did you arrive at this lovely bird, but I probably couldn't make heads or tails of the explanation, lol.

I would love a flight with just these lovelies, decorated with orange blossoms, sigh.....

I am also preparing a large walk in for my zebras to rest in before breeding in 6 months

Mmm.....could be possible cindy but to be onest I very much doubt it, I've know Peter Harrison for over 20 years, he is probably classified as the worlds top exhibitor of zebra finches, he is very very particular on where his birds go and at around £100 .00 per bird would cost a fortune and not including the shipping costs :roll:

Other than this the birds you've got pictured here are still very nice examples of quality exhibition zebs from English blood lines :D

Stuart....I was told they were imported in to a breeder and judge for bird shows on the West Coast. He knows his stuff!!! These were a bit pricey for here.

Looking through properly the quality of your zebras are very much the same as mine,

I've done exceptionally well with mine on the show bench over the last few years exhibiting at champion level,

Do you exhibit your zebs and have you done any good with them,

There's some silvers and penguins of yours that I really like the look of and should think yer birds would do rather well :-BD
