Any morph that contains albinos will have red eyes. But I think you are asking about solid red eyes, so RAPTORs, Diablo Blanco, some Blazing Blizzards Super Snow Albinos, and the Enigmas, would fall under that.
dont forget these
A&M Gecko said:I think this is a new red eye mutation that is not related with the raptor eye mutation. It works in the same way then raptors, you can have snake eyes as well. It pop out this year from my sunglow/hybino breeding, the red eye has some white marble speckles in it which makes it different then raptors. I never crossed raptors in this line and that is why I am confident is a new genetic trait. Any of you with sunglow/hybino please let me know if you have any that look like this. I checked my tabs and all the animals with the red eyes have come from the same tub # with 2 females in it. They will be placed back to the same male to see if this happens again the next season and also all the red eye glow and snake eye glow I hatched were all females and will be placed for next season back with daddy to see if we can hatch more of these beauties.
I am very excited about this new project, like I did not have already enough, lol, but this red eye is awesome with those white marble sparkles in it.
Any comment or opinion will be great.
Regards Alberto

My thought is it`s not likely Alberto`s Super Hypo is anything different than the "Eclipse" mutation, but who knows. It would be very hard to say a Super Hypo does not have Jungle and Stripe genes, so it could very easily be the same combination that makes up the Eclipse. Just my 2 pennies.
As for Red Eyed morphs
People have no idea what they are talking about in some cases, here is proof. I have heard someone say "well my temp is reading 90, so there is no way the gecko was cool enough to darken". Wrong. I would even bet, that the gecko is still experiencing the AMBIENT AIR TEMP, which is not very close to what your thermometer will be reading.
If you have high end Trempers and want them to stay the same they need higher heat than that. You have to be sure the air temp isnt dropping so low that they will cool. It can happen very easily at temps below 86 degrees, and if your hot spot is only 90, guess what the rest of the cage may be below this.
In short I am saying, if a Super Snow Albino with RED eyes turns darker as it grows older, it is more likely to be from cooling than the actual genetics. Just like a Raptor, the cooler the temps the darker they are. Just because a thermo (on the hot side)never read below 90 dg. does not mean the cage never went that low in temperature.
Like everyone else said this is it:
Raptor
Diablo Blanco
Blazing Blizzard
Super Snow Albino
Albino Enigma
OK so who is going to make a Super Snow Blazing Enigma? I call dibs
As for Red Eyed morphs
That is not true, not all of them, and there is a reason for that. If you started out with a low temperature SSA, or let one "cool" as it grew than yes it would be true. Just like most of the Tremper Albinos they are sensitive to cooler temps, it will make their skin and even eyes darken some. The same can be said for any "Raptor" Albino, they would still be red.

we will see if it is the eclipse thing or not, as you had said (groovy) if it was or had stripe or jungle in the blood line that could be what it is. but
Both the dad and the two moms in the group that this had poped out of are banded. the 3 babies with the trait are banded but are hypo so you cant tell now. maybe it is the same maybe its not the same as the (raptor/albino eclipse what ever you want to call it). but it is from bloodlines not related to any raptor /eclipse or anything that we know to this point that can make the eyes do that (patternless stripe, stripe X reverse stripe,patterenless red stripe, ect) i know that this year no animals will be breed to any Raptor/eclipse. the line will still be pure (what ever it is) if it proves out to be able to be reproduced, then i am sure it will be crossed to see what exactly it is in the near future.
with all of the things going on in leos right now it is a fun time to be in the hobby. anyone can pop out the first of its kind. with alittle luck

Yep, you never know. It looks more like some Blizzards eyes, than the Eclipse` we`ve seen, so who knows. Doubt there is any Blizzard lines introduced into his Super Hypos, but I dont know that for sure either.

Thats why you need to get one and make tremper Enigmas...
there are no Blizzards in there eather. he (alberto) did have some blizzards way back in the day when they came out but he says he hates blizzards now hahahah
and i did some test breedings this year with the blazzing blizzards with the weird eyes and the raptor/ eclipse gean so far 4 babies out and no raptor/eclipse so it looks like the two eye pigments are different so far more eggs to hatch but nothing yet. maybe you can get half black and half red that woudl be kinda cool but we will see what happens with that.
good luck groovy with being the first on that one. to many of the enigmas are out already to make any promices that anyone will be the first to make any of the crosses. i guess the race is on it will be kinda cool to see what everyone will cross them with im thinking every one will go bell but we will see
