Pearl Societies Finches

I've only seen those in pictures as over here every mutation is hard to come by. However, my friend dropped by yesterday to my house and he got me this guy:

I have one...it came from John. I have a male and have been looking for a chocolate self female to breed with him. Hopefully I will find one at the show tomorrow.

I paired mine with a chocolate self crest from my own birds. Hope you'll find a suitable one tomorrow.
