Emblema (Painted) Eye Colours
Posted: 31 Jan 2013, 21:50
Hi All,
This has been bugging me for a long time now and I cant seem to find an answer as yet.
I notice two different eye colours found in Emblemas.
One, a solid (virtually) Black Eye and
Two, an Eye that displays a yellowish iris or ring of colour around the perimeter of the eyeball.
I was wondering if these differences are understood. Are they a subspecies thing?
I took note of some Orange Mutation Emblemas today at a dealer that still had the all Black eye, so any theory of the lighter colour affecting the eye is out.
Its not a clear Cock/Hen thing as I have seen it across both (I think).
This Image above shows clearly the yellow or light iris colour.
This image above of some of my past Emblemas show both the Black eye in the foreground and the Yellow in the background.
Any input (as always) is much appreciated.
