Most of the ghost pictures online are a grey animal with an amber throat coloration. I have a corn like this sold as a ghost. However, I have also seen animals, more pale with brown or even pinkish saddles and red eyes sold as ghosts. What is the true ghost. If they just vary within the coloration, why do some have red eyes?

Ghosts do not have red eyes.
True ghosts combine anerythrism and hypomelanism. Neither have red eyes.
So to answer that part. If they have red eys they aren't ghosts.
Now, some ghosts are grey some tan and some many shades inbetween. There is quite a varience in ghosts which makes them quite interesting to me anyway.
