Post by LuxandLolita » Fri Feb 17, 2012 10:26 pm

I just thought this was pretty cool! I check the chicks over evry night jic anything is out of place. The liht was in the perrect spot to see the colors of their eyes.
Tahny andGus have greyish brown eyes and falcon has strait brown eyes. I think lolita has grey eyes to but i have not checked lux yet. Pretty interesting right?
Just thought that was cool, what color are your zebra's. Eyes?

Mine usually have very dark grey or brown. One of my isabels had ruby coloured eyes as a chick but it became more brown as she got older.
