Is that what "eclipsed eye" means? Solid black eye? They sure are pretty!
You are correct! Solid black eyes, no definition between iris and pupil. It was first emerged in the APTOR projects in 2004

Their typical pattern is a series of longitudinal rows of black spots or dashes with white feet, lips and nose with freckling while the body is yellow and often combined with a carrot-tail. Some ECLIPSE have greatly reduced body spotting. As of June 2005, there have been no jungle phase or banded phase ECLIPSE produced suggesting that there may be a genetic link or gene combination occurring between the eye color and pattern. Additionally, the thinking at this time, is that the ECLIPSE/RAPTOR is not related genetically to the Super Snows. However, many people think that crossing the ECLIPSE/RAPTOR with a Mack Super Snow will be an interesting experiment. I agree.
The new ECLIPSE mutation was crossed with the Tremper albino gene in order to make the R.A.P.T.O.R. morph. </SPAN>
