blue eyes have it. common in paints. nothing wrong with it, just a term we don't hear alot. I think they can look kinda cool! If he peers at your through the knot hole, even better.
"Walleyed" describes a horse with one or two blue eyes. Usually, a walleyed horse also has a large white facial marking that extends to the eyes. BTW- it is a myth that a walleyed horse is more likely to be blind.
