Is this a blue-eyed ghost?

AbsoluteApril Mar 13, 2010 06:49 PM

Finally got a semi-decent close up of Quartz, my ghost motley corn. I can't really tell if his eyes are blue or gray, is he what you would consider a blue-eyed ghost?

Here's a full body shot just for the heck of it:

he thinks he's so tough for a lil corn.
Thanks,
-April

As far as I know, many(if not all) ghosts tend to have grayish/blue irises. This ghost I had almost twenty years ago had grayish, very ice-blue irises as well.

Some exceptional, more extreme forms of ghost can also have red pupils too, like this outstanding specimen owned by my friend Deon Collins.

Yeah, glad you like that outstanding specimen too, I totally agree!. That is probably the most striking ghost I have EVER seen....period!. I have told him so several times. It is just insane looking!

You're very welcome April!.

Yes, I couldn't agree more about that second one being an absolute SMOKER!. When I first saw it a few years ago, I just couldn't believe my eyes!..LOL!

The awesome pink tone, the ruby-red eyes and the extremely ghosty blotches are just incredible to say the least.
