Where can I get a continental CFW?

Post by afinch » Thu Aug 14, 2014 12:00 pm

I'm fixated on the idea of breeding a continental CFW male, but I can't find one anywhere, and crossing a regular CFW with a LB female may not give me exactly what I'm after. Does anyone know of a breeder that has continental CFWs with an option to ship? I'm frustrated :] Please help!!!!

I've been trying to google up any breeders anywhere that might be able to supply CCFWs, and all I find is posts by people like me who can't find CCFWs anywhere. Do these birds exist or are they just an internet hoax? lol

CCFW exist.....you need to put you location, are you in the states?

You can not create the CCFW mutation with CFW and lightback, both are two separate mutations.

CFW are more common than CCFW

@cindy, of that I'm aware. However, LB split to CFW males do remind me a lot of CCFWs. I'd like to have some of those as well, especially if I hit capacity prior to acquiring any CCFWs.
