I will need to start separating the babies in a few days. I read that different color should in their own since wild types are more aggressive. My question is should separate the white with pink eyes from the one with dark eyes? I would think that pink eyes do not see as well and a harder time hunting
 
I wouldn't worry too much when they've just hatched, but once they're a little bigger you could separate them by color, and once they're a bit bigger I would recommend separating them by size so the bigger ones don't bite the smaller ones.
