Don’t know if I’ve got any saline but I’ll check. If not can I try loosening it with water? How would I go about washing his eye out if he closes it whenever I get near it?

Wipe what off? The shed?

Oh I see, you have everything on the inside. How do you open it with the hood in the way? Also, I think his eye may have gotten worse. It could just be shedding seeming as though he has a little bit of skin hanging from his eye but its bulging a little bit now. Here’s a photo: Just one eye is...

Its a 40 gallon. I’m confused; how can I put the UVB towards the front if I can’t attach it to the top of the tank and I also cant put it inside a hood because I have a top-opening tank. Could you send me a photo of what something like what you are describing is supposed to look like?

Do most hoods have slots for heat bulbs in them as well? If i were to get a hood, I wouldn’t have space for his heat bulbs as I don’t have a front opening tank.

Then would that mean buying a hood? How do hoods work?

Not moved it yet. I am going to tomorrow hopefully. Do you mean above him as in using a hood? I have an update on the thread for his pooping issues. The eye crease seems to just be a physical characteristic so do I even need to think of it as an issue?

Yes its a ReptiSun T8 10.0 18”. It doesn’t have a plastic cover. Attached is an image if the setup where you can see the placement of the UV.

Nope. Its a strip. 18” 12.00 WITH reflector.

No supplements actually. He’s sometimes given calcium but he gets it naturally from his food most of the time. I’m going to start to spray calcium on food before I give it to the superworms so that then they provide him calcium as well as protein and all of the stuff from the food though.

He has done a poop! Its jelly-like and has a bit of hard urate as usual but I think that is because he is still clearing out rocks that he ate from his old (loose ?) substrate. No blood though. This means that I won’t be taking it to the vet for a fecal. If it has blood next time, I will. But...

Just wondering about it and don’t know if its completely normal but recently my beardie’s eyelid has started to look a little strange. Nothing bad like what ADV or an eye infection looks like but its just a little crease in it. His other eye is normal.
