2 Week Old - Need Help.

My panther did the same thing with his eyes when he was about a month old. It was only when the humidity was too low. He could have something caught in his eye, or his eyes could just be dry. Misting more often with warm water will definitely help. You could also put him in the shower for a little while, say 15-20 minutes.Turn the showerhead against the wall so that it sort of sends mist all over and run warm water. You could either move his whole cage into the shower or just put him on a plant. As long as the water isn't directed toward him, he'll probably love the warm temp and high humidity. If there is something in his eye, the mist might rinse it out.

Okay, I'll try misting the tank a bit more often too, just to make sure the humidity levels stay up.
And I'm going to set up a little plant in the shower right quick so he can relax on it while the water sprays around to see if it'll help his eye any.
This is also a picture of what he's doing with his eye, I finally managed to get a better camera.

The first one is of his closed eye, and the second is how it looks when its open. I know I put pictures up earlier, these just look better. >.>

That is just sad and sickening at the same time. Poor little cham. I don't even know what else to say.

If it's any consolation, the remaining live baby is doing much better now. He had his very first shed and it looks like his eye is doing better, I haven't seen him close it in two days!
He's also eating lots of crickets and drinking, and is under the correct type of UVB now (I had to wait a few days to buy it), and is always curious as to whats going on. He's so adorable!
