We are in Santa Cruz, ca near the coast. His eye has a layer of stuff around it. Any implications or things to watch out for?

Eye looks okay to me. Another common name for sulcatas is "The Crying Tortoise". Weepy eyes are normal for them.

I don't see anything wrong.

Code 3 looks to be female in these pictures. Can we see the underside? I'm going by the very small gular. But maybe he's still a young tortoise and he hasn't yet developed his male shell.
