Chestnut Flanked White Zebra Finches are also known as White Marked Zebras. Their bodies are primarily white to ivory.
Males usually have a breast bar, cheek patches, and chestnut-colored flanking. These markings may appear lighter or more diluted than those of a normal Zebra Finch. Females are generally white with a distinctive black teardrop mark.
Young birds may initially have white or frosted plumage with gray or black coloring around the head and breast. Their beaks may also appear black when they are young.
This variety carries a sex-linked trait, and its appearance can vary from brightly marked birds to individuals with much paler cheek patches, breast bars, and flanking.
Zebra Finches are native to Australia. They are found across much of the continent, although they generally avoid the cooler, wetter southern regions and some areas of the tropical north.
Zebra Finches have also been introduced to several other parts of the world, including Indonesia, East Timor, Puerto Rico, Portugal, Brazil, and the United States.
Zebra Finches are active vocal birds. Their calls are lively and distinctive, making them enjoyable to observe in a home or aviary.

They are generally hardy and undemanding, making them a good choice for beginners. They enjoy the company of other finches and are best kept with compatible companions rather than alone.
Zebra Finches can be noisy and energetic. They may also become territorial, particularly during breeding season. Providing enough space, perches, and enrichment can help them remain active and comfortable.

A spacious flight cage or aviary is ideal for breeding. Provide appropriate nesting facilities, a nutritious diet, clean water, and a calm environment.
