I have two 2month old common musk turtles. One seems to have developed cloudy eyes, and is growing more slowly than the other. I keep them around 75F, dechlorinated water, provided a basking area, and am feeding blackworms and the occasional reptomin.

Did the one hatchling always have cloudy eyes? Or is it a recent thing?
I have had two turtles in the past that developed cloudy eyes. Both happened rather quickly. One was a young box turtle of about four months old. One day, one of it's eyes was swollen and cloudy. I thought for sure it would be blind in that eye as it looked awful and stayed like that for a week. Then, within another week, it cleared up on it's own. I have no explaination for it or what even had happened.
The other was a Staurotypus triporcatus that I raised from a hatchling. Whenever I fed it cooked shrimp its eyes would become cloudy within hours. They would clear up after a couple of days and I finally figured the connection between the cooked shrimp and the eye reaction. Again, no explaination.

Funny, I went to feed them today, and they were both in the water, and neither had cloudy eyes. Maybe he was just dry. The humidity tends to get kind of low in there. I dunno.
