Congratulations...The white with black cheeks are look like continental CFW...when they fledge and are young they look dark on the head, molt a few times and turn white.

This is what they look like when young and as adults.

Beautiful birds!!! I love the Black Cheeked Chestnut Flanked Whites too! :) I don't raise any of the black cheeked mutations but I live vicariously through the photos of those who keep them. Are you housing all these pairs together? If they are kept separate, your male should re-gain his lost feathers in 2 weeks time. Good luck! =D> :mrgreen:
God is my redeemer and it is through Him I have found eternal happiness. I am grateful, I am blessed, and I am truly loved. I wish all this and more for all members of our finch forum family. May you all be blessed and highly favored. <3
