I have noticed a few times that George's eyes are swollen. It isn't all the time, but it still causes me concern. I have been watching him carefully since noticing this, trying to figure out what is irritating his eyes.
The eco earth under his light gets dry too fast. I get it wet and within the hour it is dusty again. I noticed him laying under his light and when he breathed out a bunch of dirt went up. So, I pushed all the eco earth away from the lights and for now he is basking on newspaper again. I thought that solved the problem....
A little while ago I gave him a bath. When I set him back down I noticed his eyes were swollen again! I immediately got online to see what was up- they were fine before the bath. After maybe ten minutes I looked back over and his eyes had gone back down.
Is this normal? I feel so bad when they get swollen Can the water really be irritating his eyes?
