help, skin in my geckos eye

ReptiKH24 Mar 04, 2004 11:10 AM

my gecko for some reason still has a piece of skin on her head and right on her eye. Should I pull this off gently or will she do it by herself? Its like skicking to the actual eye and the eye is open.

Have you put her in a moist container yet? What I do when they have a problem is I take a plastic container and put a few holes in the lid, take a paper towel and wet it with warm water line the bottom of the container and put the leo inside with the lid on for an hour or so. Hopefully he can manage to get it of, but if not you made it moist enough to remove yourself. Carefully!
