I have zero to offer in the way of Beardie love, but as a Northern California girl, I know this drill well. Be safe. Go when they say go. Don't hesitate. Sending love to you and your babies.

We use the Repashy Plus LoD multivitamin which I think is preformed (please correct me if I'm wrong!) and the vet suggested adding an extra supplementation every month for the next couple months (so 3x per month instead of 2x per month), to see if it helps with his eye.
Update: Still no answer for Paulie closing his left eye. He went through a ROUGH shed, his first in almost a year, and his left eye had a lot of thick shed stuck for over a week. That has finally cleared save for one TINY piece of skin still stuck. Our vet suggested increasing the multivitamin...
