Yes, there are Quakers with red eyes. I don't know if this link will help you, but you can check out Tom Nemerovsky's website, www.quakerman.com. I don't believe the site has been updated in many years, just an FYI.

Hi msdani and thank you for all those links. The three in the middle are legitimate and will probably be very helpful, but the one at the beginning and the one at the end appear to have nothing to do with birds of any kind. The first one appears to contain links to men's and women's shoes and apparel, and some household goods, and the last one, as near as I can determine, has something to do with Iphone apps, or some other sort of software.
Thanks again for your help and interest. I'll plod on.

LOL Quakerville "used" to be a page dedicated to Stanley the Quaker, and was full of information and links. It appears to have since changed! Sorry! And apparently Quakerman has disappeared, too, which is sad because I loved his pictures.

Wow... I can't believe quakerman and quakerville are both gone! Although it does look like perhaps quakerville just got a new wordpress template and hasn't customized it yet...

Hey guys, thought I'd share some info with you on breeding red eyes.
In my personal experience, I would avoid it. Genetic issues, lack of parenting (My pairs take care of the dark eyed babies but usually kill or ignore the red eyed babies, which it probably them thinking the red eyed are defects) and issues that arise while hatching are the main reasons to stay away from two red eyed quakers paired together.
As for being red eyed, there are two different "red eyes". One is distinctive and clearly visible just by looking at the bird. The other is harder to notice, but you can clearly see in a flashed photo. That info is correct and doesn't work the same as a human who takes a red eyed pic. These quakers will always have red eyes regardless of angle. If you flash a dark eyed quaker you won't see red. I'll happily take pics of what I mean as I own all three eye colored quakers.
Your best bet would be to pair the red eyed bird with the opposite sex (obviously lol) of dark eyed. This way you can get visual dark eye and red eye depending on their mutations.
Hope this helps a little.
