Did Splinter mutate the turtles?

I think someone on here mentioned this before, but it looks like Splinter is actually causing the turtles mutation in the opening sequence. I never looked for myself until I actually watched it frame by frame last night.

Splinters eyes are red for a split second and he's holding a container of mutagen that doesn't appear broken or cracked. Then his hands appear as if he is setting the turtles down, not picking them up.

I guess it doesn't matter all that much if he did cause their mutation, but I'm wondering about the red eyes since he's always been under control by the Rat King when he has red eyes like that. But the Rat King doesn't show up for years, so I'm not sure why his eyes are red.

I think it would be really cool if the turtles found out he did it on purpose one episode. I don't think they'd be angry or upset because they got to have their lives, but it would be interesting.
