Please do post photos! I'm very interested in seeing what a "red phase" eastern looks like. I just had a clutch of 14 babies hatch, and several of them have noticeable red on their heads and "necks," with a pinkish wash in the pale areas of their bodies. This is my first year with eastern hogs, so I didn't know what to expect, but RED definitely wasn't something I ever considered!
