Would someone be able to identify whether this is a male or female Zebra finch? Many thanks.

Hi and welcome to the forum, I am sorry I do not know how to tell the difference, but there are many members that may be able to help you. I just wanted to tell you how adorable that little finch is !!

I can only sex normal gray Zebra finches, but others should be able to help you. I did want to welcome you to the forum! There's lots of good reading at www.finchinfo.com, where you will find many articles on finch care and the Zebra finch. If you put your general location in your profile, it makes it easier for members to answer locale-specific questions later on.

looks to be a female split to pied....gray zebras males have red beaks and hens have orange....unless the bird is a yellow beak mutation....I see no hints of a breast bar or cheek patches on this bird.

Thank you for these responses so far. How kind of you to be so welcoming. I am fascinated with how smart and adorable these hardy little birds are.
