>>This is just a random question that has me kind of stumped. I am breeding my own fancy mice that come in all colors, pattterns and everything is great. But I have a few babbies that popped out that are solid white with black eyes. Whats up with that? I guess thay are leucistic if I had to apply a reptile name to it? I also have many that have a colored coat but have red eyes. How can an animal have albino type eyes with a colored coat. Just curious is all. They all tast the same to the snakes I guess. Its just interesting to see all the different colors and patterns.

Without buying a text on the genetics I could not sort it all out. I can tell you that there are multiple loci for color and that you can get dilutes of colors that give you the pastel look and the red eyes. Likewise you get the Self Ivorys with dark eyes...almost like a blue eyed leucistic ....without the price tag.
