Impossible to be an ultra (ultra is not hypo), but it could be ultramel. If you let us know what siblings it has (or had in past seasons), we can help you "guess" what it is. The only way you'll know for sure is to breed it to an amel corn when it grows up. The pictures are not conclusive proof, but if you're sure the pupils are reddish in low light (even black pupils will appear red in bright light - like birthday party eyes), there's a better than average chance it's ultramel. Again, only breeding trials will tell AND even ultramels have black pupils at maturity. Eye color distinction is only a good test in neonates.
