What type of zebra is my Mama bird

[JezeKat]

my zebras a week ago laid their 1st batch of eggs (only two but i think two is just right for learning)

i was just wondering what my mama is?

Hatter AKA mama is a white zebra well almost white she has the tear lines and a black and white hat on her head
what is she?

the female is the one bending down to show off her hat

I'm not sure off hand, what type of Zebra your hen is but I'm glad you started a new thread with this. You'll get more answers faster this way... as soon as the experienced Zebra breeders see this. She's very pretty!

She appears to be a CFW. You can confirm and read up on the mutation here...

..I think she is a little too dark to be CFW though I am no expert. I adivce you like Nagdabit said to read up on efinch.
Could be CFW, Silver of single factor Floridan Fancy. A bigger, close up picture would help a lot

CFW don't sport the grey cap, at least not in any specimen I've seen or read about. Is all her adult plumage truly in? I have a CFW juvenile whose head is lagging behind in molting.

yes it's the hat that makes me think something diff then CFW

let me try getting a full photo

and yes she is an adult

CFW hens do quite frequently display a grayish cap on their heads. We've had several over the years and it can differ from bird to bird. Some hens have it to the degree that it almost looks like a full cap. In the efinch article if you read the third paragraph under mutation effects, it notes that the females will display a "black flecking" on their heads. Unfortunately it isn't prominently featured in the pictures of hens that he has on the page. Here are some pics of our girls that highliight it a little better. The first two are of our rather large hen, Rhosyn, first with one of her young 'uns and then with her mate Mel and baby. The last is of our little Repeep, sitting on the perch beside her brother Peep. Obviously taken before her molt since the beak is still black
