Needing some help. D:

Oh gotcha...I didn't see that. Did you try the fruit flies? What about the drip system? And did you get the temps right?

I've been feeding her fruitflies since I first got her. Also my drip system lasts all day and my temperatures are what they should be now that I moved her into her new cage.

Im really not seeing anything that could be causing the eye problems.
Has she been like this since you got her?

are her eyes crusty?
oozing?
bubbly looking?

does she open them ever?

Not really. When we got her she closed er eyes a bit but she just started doing it more and more. I don't think that her eyes are crusty, I know they arn't oozing or bubbling. She opens them every now and then but not completely and not very often... :'(

 

[Tetsuo]

Her eyes look sunk in today.

I think you have two options...


1- contact the breeder and do an exchange
[sounds lke she was sick when you got her]

2- take her to a qualified vet.

I don't want to have her exchanged I'm very attached to her already and she is super pretty. I think this lady is buying my clarinet I'm selling so if she does I'll have money to take her to the vet.

yea. they do have a way of working their way into your heart, and mind, and every waking thought. and some of the sleeping ones. haha.

i would just up her mistings for now.

go to a cvs, drug store whatever,
and get plain saline (like for contacts) make sure it jus thas saline in it, nothing else.
put a drop in each eye, 3 times a day. until you get her to a vet.

Is it supposed to flush out her eyes or something?

 

[camimom]

Are they supposed to flush out her eyes or something?

yes. its possible there is something in them thats causing her to shut her eyes, since i dont see anything else in your set up.

 

[Tetsuo]

yes. its possible there is something in them thats causing her to shut her eyes, since i dont see anything else in your set up.

Okay. I'll try to pick some up at the drugstore today.

what drug stores do you have in your area?

and you can try. but carefully.
do one drop of water at a time.
too much, and she will aspirate it.

Downtown Drugstore and The Medicine Store. How do I get her mouth open?

Downtown Drugstore and The Medicine Store. How do I get her mouth open?

see if you have anything at those places that the ingredients list is similar to this Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium 0.5%

hold her in one hand, with your palm over her back.
grab the gular (chin) lightly with thumb and index, pull gently.
it should get her to open her mouth, or open it to hiss at you.

then put a drop of water in.

but be SUPER SUPER careful. dont squirt it out fast, and dont put it at the back of her throat.
