Silk's eye seems to be improving.

sea_in_the_city Jun 05, 2004 08:37 AM

I've been putting eye drops in both eyes, giving her an oral antibiotic, and force feeding her 2 cc's of Repta-aid per day for the past 4 days. She still drinks, though not as much. She's actually back up to 36 grams from 34. Her left eye is looking a little better, though there is still a mucous coming out of both eyes. Her color is still pale, and she's quite thin, but I'm hopeful that if we can clear up the eye infection, the stress level will drop and she's start eating on her own once again. I'll try to get a pic when I'm feeding today.
