foxbasher 0 Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 I hear this alot about eye colour. we are all different but they have never looked orange to me.(and i've personally shot very close to 2,000 now). Very light green bordering white to me even under a red/amber filter, white under blue/green. My lamping buddy sees them as yellow ??? Deer green badgers orange and rabbits/hares red I must have missed something ...but fox has orange eyes to me, although I have had a couple over the last two years with BLUE eyes, very unusual and new to me...my lad is colour blind and sees things I find strange, who knows what who else sees, but as long as it is consistant does it really matter? Depends on the age of the fox in your lamp. Generally the older the fox the more orange they will appear. Can vary from pale green/watery blue through to orange. Quote Link to post

Sorry mate but after over 20 years and 1000's seen and shot I must only have ever seen youngsters they ALL look green/white to me even under coloured filters. Eye colour change with age I would argue that one. regards john. Quote Link to post

Well Ive seen thousands as well and there all orange , STRANGE I think we are probably going to have to put this down to each individuals eyes, my lad is colour blind and he sees them different to me, but they have been orange to me as long as I can remember Quote Link to post
