Default What kind of eye? LEO

This looks a lot like the APTOR eyes my female has, but I'm not good with blizzards so don't know if they're meant to ook like this.

Any advice?

ye people do tend to say a false eclipe sometimes. i think this is becuase (not 100% sure) that some blizzards come out with these type of eyes and the only way to get an eclipse is by breediing with another eclipse because there genes are recessive, so unless you bred 2 eclipses to make that blizzard it would be classed as an eclipse, otherwise its a false eclipse because no eclipse trait was part of the genetic structure. not sure but i think this is along the lines of why it is a false eclipse

snake eye and "false eclipse" happen in blizzards randomly, this is why it's called false.....eclipse as so far nothing genetic has been found in this, meaning it can't be caused by breeding in blizzard, but it does crop up randomly

It looks like "Blizzard Snake Eye" to me - I've had several snake-eyed blizzards, and although it seems to be inheritable by blizzard-based morphs (if a blizzard sire has it, it's possible to get blizzard offspring who are snake-eyed too - I am wondering if it's recessive or polygenic) it doesn't seem to carry to their non-blizzard offspring.
