Re: Zebra chicks-what color?
possibly light backs....they aren't fawns since they are missing the horn colored beak.

Re: Zebra chicks-what color?
Normal grey.
If they are boys they could be split for CFW.
Girls cannot be split for sex linked mutation.
(CFW is sex linked)
Both parents must carrie the pied gene mutation so it
will show in the offsprings.
(pied is rescessive)
Thats why your baby chick is NG
Very very cute chick, congrats!

Re: Zebra chicks-what color?

Re: Zebra chicks-what color?
it depems on what bird they are mated with.
But I guess if the NG split CFW boy are mated with CFW girl,
then you will get CFW, normal greys and NG split cfw..
And if the chick on picture #1 is Split BC, then you can pair him up with another bird that is split to BC, and then you will get full BC bird.
But wild guess... U can have pied, CFW, normal grey and possible BC.
But like they say, when you have zebra finches, its just like a box of chocolate, you will never know what you will get.

Re: Zebra chicks-what color?
they fledged.
one has a white mark on his wing-so he's pied I guess,and he has much lighter legs
