Stunning birds, definitely a bit of envy sneaking in on our part. I take it you had to leave them behind when you moved across the ocean? That could not have been easy. Best wishes in trying to build up your flock again. Have you tried any of the forums on Yahoo? There is one dedicated strictly to Zebra finches and there are a number of breeders on there with some of the unusual mutations like you had.

http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/zebrafinch/

Maybe by posting what you're looking for on there someone can help you track down the birds you're looking for.

There is also a group that focuses on the buying and or selling of all finches in general.

http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/Finc ... _or_Trade/

Hopefully between the two hopefully you'll be able to locate some quality birds
