Is it stuck like that or just when he blinks.?
They blink like that sometimes but they're eyes should go back rapidly.
It’s not stuck like that I just can’t bear to see him do that it feels to me like something is wrong. He stopped after a while. He was blinking his eyelid, it was not stuck but he blinked repeatedly for some time

Get some regular saline solution from Walmart no contact lens stuff and rinse the eye out -- where is the dust coming from?
I had let him roam a bit but my bf house is dusty and I think something got in his eye :( he seems ok today but his eye is different like his eye is a bit more extended at the bottom
Oh my sweet Zero I do hope you’re alright

Hello,

How is the eye looking today, any improvements?
The sterile saline solution should help out. If it looks like there could be infection starting
for some reason you could try some manuka honey or raw unpasteurized honey thinned
out with warm water to make eye drops. It is very effective for clearing out bacteria.
Let us know how he is doing.

he seems alright today. i have still noticed his inner eyelid closing at times i am wondering if it is normal. the eyelid is flush white, sometimes i've seen it with blood vessels.

on another note, anyone know if the wyze cam lights are ok around the beardies? it's so important that i am able to observe him during the day and even at night.

yeah, it's a step by step process with the BF. he is not always accommodating. Zero's enclosure is at his house. i am attempting to make changes as I can do. you mentioned tile and something soft, right? there are carpets/liners in petco.
Zen habitats makes a mat to fit 4x2x2 tanks- it's soft - then you can put 2 pieces of textured ceramic tile in something that is not too coarse or too smooth- this will keep the nails down-

Mirage is shedding....he seems to be feeling itchy lol. Giving him a bath later today. Can Aloe be used on bearded dragons?
Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
