I have an albino leopard gecko female, and she just had a shed it was awful, I keep humidity up and have wet moss in with her, she shed all but her head and I tried to help her with shed aid, but she didnt shed her eye caps and now her eyes are a cream color mucus and you cant even see her eyes. My vet I have is a very busy woman and had to get an appt with, But I researched it and it said to use saline and I did but nothing and she is not eating so I have been force feeding her stage one baby food. I have Baytril 10mg from my Bearded dragon who just got over Meningitis, can I give that to her? I need help as I am still trying to get into my vets but she is booked solid. And help will be very much appreciated.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
