Hi, I recently acquired a Redfoot Hatchling. He/she is almost 3 inches and I've noticed that the eyes are slightly different from the eyes of other Redfoots I've seen throughout my research of this species. Most, have all-black eyes, with very little whites showing. Like the one in the first picture I have attached. I've since learned that the white portion of the eye is called the "sclera". Well my Redfoot hatchling (in the second pic) has very noticeable scleras. He looks very wide-eyed and very intense/concentrated all the time ahaha. I just wanted to know if this was a normal/based on genetics thing. Thank you!
