Are there any pure white zebra with black cheeks?

yes..Continental CFW. I raise them. The young fledge with black heads and molt to white with black cheeks.

I have also tried pairing a BC female with a Continental CFW. It creates a larger, fuller visual CCFW but it is split to BC.

Cindy, those are beautiful! I recently saw a photo of some of these online and didn't know whatit was called! I think I am in love!

My original pair are back on eggs and my BC and CCFW pair are on eggs also. The CCFW/BC young are much bigger and fluffier (feather wise)

I just put together a cage that is 30 wide, 38 deep and 18 high for the BC and CCFW. They are loving the flight room. I'll try to get picture of the CCFW and the CCFW/BC young tomorrow.

Ooooh... I've never seen one before! They're beautiful! Thanks for posting the photos Cindy!

The abbreviations Cindy used:
BC = Black Cheek
CCFW = continental chestnut flanked white
(there is also a regular chestnut flanked white, abbreviated as CFW)
hope that helps!

Thank you Nelissa.

I am going to post a new thread with BC and CCFW on it so as to not highjack this.

I deleted the duplicate thread of this topic.

Yes those are beautiful Zebs, Cindy!
