Couldn't resist these english zebras!

Post by slwatson » Tue Sep 13, 2016 10:23 am

I have a friend who's a fantastic breeder and takes wonderful care of her birds, and she decided to downsize on some of her smaller finches. I couldn't resist the english zebras <3

I don't even have the heart to post this, but my black cheeked male passed away! I found him when I got home Tuesday...his mate is very sad without him. I've got her in a hospital cage with some heat just in case, and she seems to be doing good. The breeder I bought him from has an unrelated pair, so hopefully I can get a new male in a couple of months or so for her. Poor guy...he really was cute :cry:

Thank you...it was sad. The hen is doing fine. She meeps when she hears my other pair, but at least she's not the only one left.
