I was aware this mutation existed, but I'd never come across it in this species. Well, I found this singleton for sale half-off for $9.99 at a mall kiosk today while doing my holidays shopping, and after a lot of deliberation....

Sigh... so much for downsizing....

He is awfully cute.

You're downsizing my way, Dylan....

Are you gonna call him Donald, or Mr. Trump ????

You gave me my chuckle for the day Dylan, and I sure needed it.

I love him !!!

In a mall kiosk? What kind of malls do you have down in Indiana lol?

He's awesome, btw... congrats

rcharrod It's almost like a permanent flea market, and one vendor was selling a few zebra finches they probably bred along with some other pet supplies. I didn't ask much, I just knew he looked good and I wanted him!

I wanted to keep Snickers quarantined for at least a couple weeks, only because he's a pet shop bird and I don't know where he comes from before he got there... but he had other ideas.

He's very small and I guess he was able to pop out through the bars of the little temp. cage I had him in while the society finches were out this afternoon and I came back to this. He and my white socie Claire attached at the hip.

They share a hairstyle!
