Sorry for the poor pictures but my camera on my ohone is not that good and I am not an accomplished photographer. Basically he has a reddish/brown discoloration around the back of the eye and on the bottom of the lid. Close up look with a magnifying glass, it does not look like mites rubbing the area with a paper twoel removes nothing moving and rubbing areas of the animal with mineral oil does not reveal anything scurring to survive. Rubbing the area with a wet paper towel does slightly discolor the towel. He does rub it on cage furniture ocassionally and i am treating the area with antibiotic and antifungal ointmemts.
What do you think?
