I'm going to make a bold statement and say it's not eclipse- although the eye is black you can still see the veins- it's just a deep dark marbling color of the normal eye. It also doesn't show any of the other eclipse markers like the blue head spot and the white nose. I do agree with Nigel and say it's got a pretty good chance to be het Raptor because it's probably from an emerald/emerine/rainbow stripe project- whatever you wanna call it, and the majority are het Raptor because they stemmed from these.

Amazing animal.

I would love to have it and play around to see what comes out of it. These morphs tend to mess around with the orange pigmentation making it pop and look unreal. It's great, I have that dark one that although is a deep dark color has some orange stripes that look completely fake. Only time will tell what this one will turn out to look like and possibly later produce.

Very pretty! I'm going to agree with Nigel's answer. Patternless Stripe maybe het for Raptor/Eclipse.

thanks might i add he/she is only 11 grams. i still think there is going to be a wide changes and colors yet to be seen. so am sure when it hits the 20/30 gram mark it will be a bit more clear.
