    Question Question about eye caps?

    I rescued a female ball on Monday she has ate and seems to be doing well, however she has stuck eye caps. My question is should I soak her to get them off or wait for her next shed? She doesn't apper to be going into shed any time soon (no pink belly or blue look to her). She seems to see fine.
    Thanks in advance.

    Really personal preference.

    With her being a new acquisition....

    Re: Question about eye caps?

    I rescued a snake with retained eyecaps and I put fragrance free skin moisturizer(I got it at Whole Foods) on them and made her a humid hide with damp(not soaked) moss and they came off in 2 days.
