WHERE DOES THE ZEBRA FINCH ORIGINALLY COME FROM?
The Zebra Finch originates in Australia, however there have been no importations from Australia for several decades, and all stock in Europe are the result of many generations of captive breeding. Therefore Zebra Finches can be considered as domesticated. DOES THE ZEBRA FINCH ONLY EXIST IN ONE COLOUR FORM? No! In common with many other birds of Australian origin, it now comes in a wide range of colour forms (mutations). New mutations and combinations still from time to time occur.
