Manouria eye seeping puss

terrygar Feb 13, 2006 08:05 PM

Hello I have a Blk Mtn 3 years old and her eyes just started pussing(alittle ball of puss) in the rear area. She got in with my 3 year old hermanns
yesterday in the outdoor enclosure and they are never together.
I wonder if that could have been anything. They didn't fight or anything, they just were in the same area for a few hours before I caught it.

Not likely that any kind of an infection would happen that quickly. If she does have an infection it was already present.

Best to have her checked out by a vet to be sure she is alright though.

Good Luck

By all means have it Vet checked, but there's something you may like to get. There's a product called Turtle Clear Eyes it's made by Tetrafauna. I've used it to clear up eye infections with great success. Every tortoise and turtle keeper should keep it on hand.imo.
