    Whitish patches on eyes??
    Hi all! Wish my first post could be of a less serious nature. Today while handling my bp I found a mite on my sweater. I checked her for any more but couldn't find any. I ordered mite spray online just to be safe, but then I noticed significantly lighter patches at the top of her eyes that seem to be under the scale, but not warping the scale in any way. What are they? Are they mite-related? Normal? Something else? She ate yesterday and has been active, so she seems fine otherwise. Any input helps, thank you!

    +1 to the eyecap. I have one lady that retained one of hers this last shed. One piece shed but one leftover cap. It should come off with the next she. Just make sure the humidity is right.

    Thanks for the pic tutorial! I found out that it is just mites in her eyes, so I'm treating her for that. :gj:
