New to Finches - What's Her Species?

[canarysanctuary]

Hi all!

I'm very new to finch ownership! I love my two little finches, Henry and Anne.
Below is a photo I took of the pair.
At the pet shop they were sold to me as a male and female zebra finch, but I'm not sure of the exact species (or is colouring the right term?) for the female.
You can get an overall idea of her colouring in this photo; she's all this very light "fawn" colour, and has very faint bar markings on her tail and circles on her cheek.

I was wondering, what would her exact "species" be?

She's just laid her first egg this morning, and I'm very excited!

Thanks everyone!

Her species is Zebra Finch. Your thinking of Mutation ;) I'm not familiar with Zebra colors so someone else will be around to help. They are cute though, and Welcome!

I'm not sure what mutation they are either but they are cute... and so are your nails!

Thanks!

Quick internet searches aren't being really helpful, but it seems at the very least "Cream" or "Fawn" mutations (thanks GouldyGirl!) sound like they make sense

Definitely Zebra finches - and very tame ones at that! The female may be a fawn Zebra. Very pretty at any rate. Have fun with them!

They look like very sweet birds!...Enjoy!

Very cute Zebs Your female looks like my Florida Fancy hen. And I believe your male could be a Lightback.

Very cute Zebra pair and so tame! I'll bet you can get some very pretty babies out of them. Do you know how old they are? Congratulations!

Thanks everyone!

6finchfriends: They're about 9 months old. I called the pet store and asked, and they gave an estimate on their age. I'll likely be back with lots of questions if it turns out that the eggs are fertilized!
