I have seen quite a few with red eyes. The eye color tends to be similar(either a darker or lighter shade) of the background color of the snake. I have noticed the color in the eyes just prior to an explosion of color in the body of the snakes. My pastels tend to have very light tan eyes that almost overnight turn bright yellow, with the sheds that follw the eye transformation , the body becomes increasingly yellow as well.

The exception I have seen to that rule is a male yellow that I sold to Joe Lydon that has blueish eyes.

I would bet that the one you posted will be a very pink snake, a keeper for sure.
