Looking for pictures of Pearl Eye Color?

[MysteryChicken]

Hello, I would like to see what the eye color pearl looks like. I'm curious since I got Malays, & I read they're supposed to have pearl eyes.

If anyone has pictures to share, that'll be nice?

I don't know how I missed that one.

It actually looks similar to my Marans/Gamefowl cross eyes.

I understand it's a recessive eye color trait, & I can test if he possibly has it.

Original purpose was cockfighting.

Now primary use is meat, egg Production isn't great for Malays. They're supposed to be really great flock Protectors too.

I'm gonna help preserve this breed, & increase Genetic Diversity.
