baby bearded dragon eye problem?

aaronb716 Sep 22, 2004 05:08 AM

I recived a baby bearded dragon as a gift about two weeks ago and i noticed last night its one eye was closed i didnt think anything of it until i woke up this morning and it was the same way, so i took him out and looked a little closer and it looks like there is a clearish gunk holding the eye lid shut, how should i go about treating this or am i going to have to take him to the vet? thanks

I've never had that happen to my beardie, but my saharan uro has the same clearish gunk. I just take a soft towel and let him rub his eye on it and it cleans it off.

But I suggest you take the baby to the vet.

Just take the baby to the vet, I don't know what it is, but it could effect your beardie more then my saharan.

Hope this helps and I hope your baby gets better

Well i came home from school today to know serprise his eye was still all gunked up so i took a q-tip with some warm water on it and wiped it softally over the eye a couple times and the gunk released and he can see again, hopefully its not going to come back but if it does i know what to do....
