My baby veiled, Comma, has been keeping his eyes closed for about a week now. It started out as just one for a few weeks, and has now progressed to both. I read somewhere that they tend to do this when they aren’t getting enough vitamin A. Since he won’t open his eyes, he’s unable to eat or drink, so I’ve been watering him and feeding him carrots mixed with a small amount calcium through a syringe morning and night in an attempt to keep him healthy. I bought some beta carotene capsules, but the gel inside doesn’t mix with water and is too think to mix into food. Nothing I’ve done so far has seemed to help. Any suggestions or information is appreciated!
