    Difference between pink eyes and red eyes

    Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that albinos(for obvious reasons) are one of the few rats with truely red eyes. Everybody else seems to have red dilute or pink.

    The girl with the litter isn't albino. She seems off white in color. Albinos are pure white. So I think she has pink eyes.

    I could be totally wrong with this, but that's what I'm assuming.

    And are the other rats' eyes really as red in real life as in the picture? Or just camera red we reflection?

    Albino's are the only one's to have pink eyes. All the other colored rats have ruby eyes.

    Albinos have Pink eyes, but other non albino rats can also have Pink eyes. This is called P.E.D (Pink Eyed Dilution). Rats with Red eyes are a R.E.D (Red Eyed Dilution).

    Some believe Ruby eyed is a third allelomorph in rats and should be separated from R.E.D.

    Top photo, right is Ruby, Bottom photo is Red.

    Female at top right looks black eyed next to the other red dilutes. Female with litter looks ruby next to the hairless and tan. Hairless eyes are very noticeable without flash. They are very light red or pink eyed
