I've never heard of a red-eyed mutation, but they look like pretty standard normal zebras to me.

They look like normals to me. The hatchlings are hilarious, they have fuzz standing up all over them and look like cute little aliens, the fledglings will look like mama with black beaks till they color up.
BTW, those perches that come with most cages are sized more for parakeets, etc. If you can cut a small branch from your yard that is 1/3 to 1/2 narrower than that perch, it will be a lot better for their feet.

Dont worry I have 1 perch like that, 2 natural smaller branches, fake ivy, and 2 smaller dowels.

Those birds could be split for something else, which would mean theair babies could be different colors.
I had a pair exactly like your pair and they produced a black cheek.
